Will not start or idle

turn your update rate down to 10 or 15 hz and see if that helps.

If you are running registered TS you NEED to use the JSSC or FTDI driver, not the generic serial driver.
(Soon to be replaced by JSSC as default, the generic driver has always had serious issues)

Firmware might be corrupted. Reload firmware, build fresh tune from the original base tune, not your current one. This could help. Have you posted about this at msextra.com?

That was it. I owe you a steak dinner if you're ever in Houston. Started up and ran for about 10 minutes before I shut it off. Hope this corruption isn't a regular thing though??

I had it happen a couple times with old firmware, the newer serial code has a lot more sanity checks.
Bogus electrical issues or a gimpy serial adapter can still cause issues, as well as tuning via bluetooth---its for logging only IMHO. Tune or load FW via BT at your own risk. Keep handy backups.

Thanks. I like your sig., my wife makes beer and I carbonate it. After many years she still doesn't understand pressure and volume, much less tank and line pressure.
