Nistune Forums

-Have you ever checked the actual mechanical timing ? ..with a timing lamp: this should be identical to what realtime ignition shows in nistune. If you are using an early type (2) ECU and your mechanical timing is all over the place, you probably have an issue with either the CAS (crank angle sensor...

Hey Eric, I'm interested in some other cards for collection and diagnostic purposes. I have a 1997 Primera Wagon with SR20VE and CVT and the CVT diagnostics don't work with the card i have because the card doesn't have the right program. I looked at the possibility of trying to replicate the cards,...

I have 3 original Consult 1's (one is for parts) and a Consult 2 ...and lots of cards (european and a couple of US cards) Still use the Consult 1's quite a lot...actually got one in my car with me all the time :mrgreen: They are especially nice for diagnosing or resetting other DDL capable ECU's in ...

> I just fed up and I assume Eric is in the same feeling. No, I'm not fed up with Nistune (if that's what you are referring to..) The gauges window focus-issue only happened once for me. (knock on wood) Maybe this is because I'm not using a tablet but a low end laptop (Dell latitude c610 with 1Ghz, ...

> Gauges window is barely usable. > On my tablet, once opened, I cannot minimize or close it anymore. The 3 small buttons on the right top corner of the gauges window have no > effect. I have to switch off ignition to drop the Consult communication and to retrieve the control of Nistune. This sounds...

Great ! Thanks !

Maybe as an alternative, make it possible to use a certain (function) key to open/close (or minimize/maximize) the multi-gauge window ? I noticed some of the other windows already use function keys to open, but maybe add the ability to close that window again using this same key ? PS: are these (fun...

> Are those the only 2 things that are different? No,there are couple more things Eg. FPCU (fuelpump controller) management is different also. running a NA ECU in a TT will cause the fuelpump to run at full speed (noisy) most of the time But if you have removed the FPCU and are running an aftermarke...

That is not an ideal combination, unless the car will be used for racing/track purposes only.
The NA ECU has some (hardware) functions missing in comparison to a TT ECU (eg. no 2 speed AC fan control and no WG sol.valve control)

Better is to try to find an early (S1 or S2) TT ECU.

OK, if it ever happens again I will first make an export of the Nistune registry keys.

Ok, maybe it has something to do with the fact I sometimes hibernate my laptop (leaving Nistune open) during sessions when tuning multiple cars or when diagnosing mechanical issues. It happened after I woke up my laptop from hibernation. But normally this works fine and I can continue where I left w...

Not sure if this has ever happened to anyone else, but I recently had an issue with the multiple gauges window. (version 1.2.81) The gauge window was set to full/maximum size and I wasn't able to resize, minimize or close it. It also took main focus, so I wasn't able to access the main Nistune windo...

In worst case scenarios for ECU's that don't have much free space left, even with only a couple of bytes available, it should already be enough to choose from over 65000 different revision/id numbers (maybe like an addition to the 5 bytes/characters of the partnumber stored in the ROM.) If you then ...

Auto software updates don't seem to work ...and once the software has expired, it opens a non existing link in my browser: http://www.nistune.com/support-downloads.php (the correct link should be https://www.nistune.com/support/software-downloads) Maybe the auto-updater is also watching this non exi...

Hi Matt, would it be possible to add some sort of small comment or identification field ? can be small, something like 32 characters or so. Eg. for the Z32 8-bit ECU's I sometimes use ROM area 0x6B00 to 0x6C00 to store some information about that particular tune (eg. date/ version/revision/name/regi...
