    Went to get a tune today...shop kept getting an error on the MegaSquirt?

    Hey guys,

    So I went to go get my car tuned. It uses the DIYPNP with microsquirt daughter board. Now, I don't really know what i'm talking about so i'm just trying to convey what the guys at the shop said to see if any of you understand it.

    He said he'd connect the serial and it would autodetect everything fine, however at that point it would launch a box that would say Serial Security Code and it would have a bunch of boxes as if it couldn't read the text. They said they've never seen this before.

    The version that popped up was: MS2 Extra rel 2.1.1a with a little box shape as stated above.

    Does anyone know a fix for this? I don't have any of the original stuff that was received with the DIYPNP/Microsquirt.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Elliott

    Okay so i'm pretty sure it has something to do with an .ini file. Everything i'm reading says to pull it from the file on the computer that you downloaded the firmware with, however I do not have that.

      Okay so I went back today as the guy thought he found a solution. The problem is that when we detect in tuner studio everything is fine. It'll say "check 'other' and click on the ... to locate your firmware" (the Internet search for the firmware). However the "..." Doesn't show up and it just says "browse" to check the local disk. We're connected to the Internet as well.

      Is there anyway to dl the .ini file separately for my version in the original post?

      Thanks,
      Elliott

        Is the 2.1 .ini what I need from this link? http://www.megamanual.com/files/ini/

        Sorry for all the noob questions, just trying to figure this out and learn on the way.

        Thanks,
