More Problems with my HFS-5

[Import Junky]

I don't get it Richard. I've left this thing in the box since you sent it back until a couple of nights ago and then just installed it. It's not like it was raining out when I did the install or spilled anything on it. What should I do now Richard?

[Richard L]

I think we have found the problem.

The DDS3's pin25 is not grounding the FIA2's blue wire as it suppose to. It requires a repair. I will send you another v9 board tomorrow and please send this one back to me.

We will never know what happened, static discharge? This this why we use a conductive box. There is always a risk when the underside of the board is exposed.

Please pm me your address again.

Wow!!!! What can I say? Thanks for all of your help Richard. I'll pm you my address right now?

Good news! Richards customer service is impeccable!!!

Good luck Import Junky, once you get it all installed you should be 100% satisfied as ERL is amazing products once installed and running.

IJ, your pm didn't contain your address.

Evan, thanks for your help.

I couldn't log on to this forum a couple of hours ago. This is a daily problem for me - anyone else have this problem. It appeared the MS live-one-care is playing tricks on my computer.

[Import Junky]

Yeah I can't wait!! I'm still waiting on my FP Red turbo so it's not keeping from getting tuned anyway. I just can't wait to be addicted to meth....haha.

Bumpity bump. Here's a link to my thread in the Northeast Region. Trying to get some local help. Also trying to contact Richard L. Here's the link. It has a good explanation as to what's going on now.

I don't really know what the problem was, I have sent you a new junction box and modified the gauge for you to match v9 DDS3. The diode modification is not a temporary modification, but a essential modification if you want the v8 gauge to work with v9 board.

I think the only way forward is by send the two items together back to me. I can test the two at the same time.

There has been some changes between the original v8 you purchased from another user. We have had the v8a and v9. Now we are shipping v10.

No charge.

Richard I apologize if I sound rude in any way. I'm losing patience with myself. You're the only person that can really help me and it's extremely hard to stay in contact with you. I've had this kit since June and I'm just so tired of messing with it.

As for your statement. "Now we are shipping v10" Does that mean the board I got in the mail is v10? I was wondering if you could give me another way to contact you more effeciently?

[Import Junky]

I don't know what else to do other than take pictures of each connection so you can physically see them. I can either post them up here or email them to you directly.

[Richard L]

I have replied to two other messages you posted on this forum. I suggest your returning the v9, flow sensor and gauge to me so that I can test them on our test bench.

This way, you don't have to pull all your hair out and I don't have to keep sending you new parts continuiouly, with no results... Save money and everyone's time in the long run.

[Import Junky]

So I'm assuming this would be the only way to contact you?

[Richard L]
