BMS F Series JB+ Tuner - Install Issues
What am I doing wrong?
Here's the install guide: http://burgertuning.com/instructions...es_jb_plus.pdf I found this picture helpful in locating the TMAP sensor and removing the clip: This is the engine bay with the location of the TMAP sensor (hopefully I've located it correctly, if not, let me know!): And the red line is where the wire disengages from the socket: Now, the short end of the tuner fits snug into the sensor, but the sensor wire on the other end does not go all the way into the tuner’s socket and slides in and out. I don't know why they'd design something that goes in an engine bay that doesn't fit with a "click." Basically, the socket on the tuner (as you can on the left side in the picture below) is deep while the sensor wire end is not, making the four tips inside not make the right contact. When I leave it be, and start the engine, I get a "drivetrain malfunction" warning light immediately. Once I remove it, the warning light goes away. Please tell me if I'm being dumb, and not seeing something obvious. I tried putting the sensor wire into the tuner socket both ways, and tried pressing it hard in both positions. Still fits somewhat loose, and slides in and out with minimal pressure. |

Would I have caused any permanent damage to the car doing this? |

I hope it didn't bend the pens, and I also hope it didn't reset the ECU in unpredictable ways or did other "electronic" things. Is the latter possible? I just took a quick 2-mile drive, and no warning lights have popped up so far.
