HSW MicroEdge related issue
I am not saying that the problem is the MicroEdge, but we are trying to get this figured out. As soon as we plug in the MicroEdge the car runs very rough even at idle. We unplug it and the car returns to normal. We have double checked the wiring and the settings on the MicroEdge and Interface and this is a brand new out of the box HSW plate kit and accessories. We are stumped and are eager to get this thing to the track.
Anybody have any ideas, any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

hey hawk, we tried to talk a little about this while i was in the staging lanes at the AZSRA event sat night. this is definatly a weird issue, since the ME shouldnt effect anytghing with the pcm, did you tap into any wire of the pcm for the install, the tps or rpm wire? did you try to, maybe nicking one of the wires? now when you say as soon as you plug in the ME is the activation switc on? what does the screen of the ME say, do you have everything hooked up/ plugged in wih the car not running, and the key on, what does the ME say? i think i remember you saying that you we running the interface too right? when are you plugging in the ME, it should just be left plugged in, the switched 12v turns is on, and the arm switch activates it

Yeah sorry i didnt have more time, we were just getting ready to run the final race... so when the car is running rough what does the screen on the ME say, does it say standby, or arm, or spray, have you checked the interface to see if the spray light is lit up on the interface, if the interface is getting a signal to add fuel that could be a problem. Are you getting the correct values for the RPM and TPS on the ME, at least on the obd-I pcm's there is 4 bundles and two of them have pins 13 and 22 so it is easy to hook into the wrong wire? Have you tried unhooking the wires from the pcm to see if the problem goes away? Have you tried leaving the ME hooked up but hooking the stock MAF harness back up (taking the interface out of the equation)
