ah i see. yeah when we tuned my car we didnt touch the traction control.im guessin if we did i would get the same thing.

 

Nope, his is a service light, not a low traction light. You will pick up more WTQ if you remove the torque reduction. The Low traction light means nothing, it's when the service light comes on, which has nothing to do with the tune.

 

And its the service light that comes on hence my problem.

And again its NOT STEVE OR DOC'S fault! This was a preexisting problem that I had hoped would go away, saddly it has not.

 

hmm thats really strange..are u the only one who has this problem?

 

Hey Psyko, do you have any idea why a '06 5spd would switch on the CEL after a tune? When I took it to Autozone, they told me it was a P0171 code, MAF or O2 sensor before the cat. Do you know what I can do to fix it?

 

when i had my 2.4 i never had any cel just t/c lights

 

my t/c light is steadliy on now, but my DIC never said anything about low traction or service at all.

 

steves tunes are the best. for both the 2.4 and the 2.0. psykotuned is definately the way to go!

 

I dont think there will be an issue. But do you think that your tune should work on a Ion.

 

+1 on wondering if it'll work with an ion, all I will have is the injector swap and maybe a cai at the time of the tune.. how much do you think it'll help me ? still about a second? i'm a 2006 2.4 manual ion for the record

 

That's a lean code. Not a sensor. You need your MAF readjusted when you can get around to it. If you do not use Premium fuel ONLY you will see these codes as well.

Yeah they work on an ION though you need slightly different tuning, because Saturns tend to have differences.

 

yeah, i wonder if a 5spd would have the crank re learn problem too. odd.

 

Nope, I have the 5spd with a tune, lean code is my only problem, and its cause the tune didnt account for my intake

 

I need to get my laptop back up and check out the tune, its a simple fix, the p0171 code. The crank relearn has happened a few times since I switched to the newer hptuners software update.

 

Sweet deal, just hit me up whenever you want to meet.

 

DOC pmed you.

 

This new .18 version has more bugs in it than ever! It must be because they added Fords to the lineup. Damn Fords! I have to reload HPtuners after nearly every car now!

 

Well my crank sensor is re-larned but my traction control keeps going off and as it turns out its cause of the tune. The issue I had prior was scaned and found to be due to the ice I hit and the car re-set itself and it wouldn't have been a problem. Steve's tune makes the car chirp 2nd which makes the traction control want to come on but his program says not to so the computer gets confused, truns it off all together and turns on the service traction stuff. The CEL is back because Steve is 3000 and some ft above sea level and I'm damn near at sea level so the MAF sees things outside his parameters and throws on the CEL. I've PMed DOC to see when I can drive down to visit im to get the MAF calibrated for the lower altitude and hopefully DOC can turn off the traction control at that time eliminating the damn traction control crap too.

Steve anything you can think of that I missed?

 

Just wondering on the progress here. My buddy has the 2.4L and is gonna unload my stock injectors from me and get himself a harness. We have a couple guys in the city with HP Tuners, but we don't know how to get him a good/reliable tune for the bigger injectors. Do you have the ability to email us a tune or something??? I have no idea how that works, please help :-)
