Wierd one... Just got my car off the dyno, was all great until then. Now the car wont start unless my laptop is plugged in and synced with consult! We have re-written all data permantly to the ECU several times. We can't work out why this has happened all of a sudden... Please help
Car is HR31 with RB20DET NICS with 18 month old nistune daughterboard.

Just did some more diagnosis with this problem. Please help with this Matt
With no laptop plugged in, Turn key on, ecu powers up, fuel pump goes on but stays on flat out. Car wont start.
Try again, but this time with laptop plugged in and switched on only (Nistune not even loaded). Turn key on, ecu power up, fuel pump works as normal and doesnt stay on flat out, car starts perfectly every time....
What the hell is going on?
Cheers.
Paul.

Paul you have an email. I need the board here to see what is going on. Sounds like it will only work when the firmware is using the USB code which is strange. Would need to investigate what is going on so will send a board over to exchange with
