Default Attention all hondata users or people looking into it

I recently had a really nasty problem getting my hondata s200 to work properly. The light on the box kept turning off for no apparent reason, I spent about 30 hours trouble shooting the problem and I finally found it. The light seemed to turn off only when the hood was down and as we all no there is no power going to the hood so there was no reason for the light to go off every time I closed the hood.
Well turns out that the spark plug wires were making a lot of RF and that seemed to mess with the Hondata box. The wires I bought had very little resistance and putting the stock ones back in seemed to totally fix the problem. I'm just putting this on here because I had a really hard time figuring this problem out, I posted many times, I called hondata, and posted on there site and nobody seemed to have any insight into the problem. I thought that I would let others no that you can't buy cheap plug wires and run the s200 I'm sure this will happen to someone else. Now I can finally get my car tuned.
