Default Problem in AEM EMS - Engine load stuck on 35psi
Hey guys,
i'm running a B16 turbo.
with AEM EMS 30-1040 , GM 3bar MAP
when i turn the switch , the Engine Load is on its highest point - 35PSI
so the car wont start/run

i double checked the MAP connector , everything connected as it should...

what can be the problem?

TIA

So you're reading 5v. Triple check your wiring, make sure Map Analog Input is Map Sensor and try another map sensor

Did you change the settings in the EMS to tell the computer that it is a gm 3 bar map sensor?

I'd measure the voltage at the signal wire on the MAP sensor. If it's 5 volts, there's probably something wrong with the sensor.

Some conversions to V1.19 did some strange things, Alpha is correct, make sure your map input is set to map sensor.
