s200b base map question
Posted: Sun Apr 25, 2004 3:36 pm
I just installed my s200 system and here's what happened.
The car started and ran for about 10 seconds and then died. I tried to start it a few times again and it didn't start. I then noticed that the hondata light was blinking slow and steady. Troubleshooting led me to believe that it was a communication problem or the base map. I pulled one of the spark plugs out and it was drenched in fuel. I installed everything correctly. My question is, do you think that my base map is not working? Whats invloved when someone writes you a base map, I know that there's alot of information that you give to your dealer to make a base map, but what actually is invovled in doing that. Does the dealer just type in a your info and program it to the chip. If that's the case then, if I get another chip the problem may still be there, or can the chip just be bad?
