A.1 Control Program Problems
Haltech Programming Software will not start
The Haltech programming software should run on any computer that meets the requirements
outlined in 2.1 Computer Requirements, p22. If after following the instructions outlined the
program will not run, the most likely cause will be insufficient memory. If this is the case,
you must make more free memory available before running the software.
Run the Haltech software from the DOS prompt. If you are loading a number of TSR
(Terminate and Stay Resident) utilities during start up, you may need to disable them before
running the Haltech software. Refer to your computer and DOS reference manuals on
memory management.
Alternatively, you may make your Haltech disk bootable by placing it in floppy drive A: and
typing:
c:\> sys a:
We recommend that you make a backup of the original disk before trying this. You should
then be able to restart your computer with the disk in drive A:, and the Haltech software will
load and run automatically.
If the software still does not run, and you see the message "Error ### at xxxx:xxxx", record
these numbers (or letters) and contact your Haltech dealer.
Haltech programming software will not run ONLINE
If the Haltech ECU does not respond to the Programming software requesting information,
then the message RECONNECT HALTECH will be displayed. This situation will occur
under the following conditions
ECU is not powered up
Programming Cable is not connected
Incorrect COM port selected
Wrong Programming Software
Programming Cable is damaged
Serial port of programming computer is faulty.
If the software is the wrong version or you suspect that the cable is faulty, contact your
Haltech dealer.
Engine Data Page Displays Unusual Readings
If the air temperature sensor, or coolant temperature sensor is showing a FAULT condition
then the sensors are either not operating correctly or are disconnected. Using the wiring
diagram of the ECU Loom check that the sensor wires are not damaged. If the wiring is OK
then contact your Haltech dealer regarding replacement of faulty sensor.
If the Throttle Position Sensor is showing a fault condition then re-calibrate the throttle sensor
and check the wiring
