    Just bought a used w205 c63s with a tune and came with MyGenius handheld. How can I determine what kind of tune it has. Don't know the previous owner since I purchased vehicle from dealer

  • @AnotherMotorist

    Was consider doing this without a battery charger... Can you confirm if this is ok to do with just a cheapo trickle charger? I have no access to a battery charger.
    Thanks

    • @vivid_racing
      @vivid_racing  3 роки тому +1

      Trickle charger won't stabilize the battery if it is under a lot of load during a long writing process (Fuel pump and rad fans running). In reality 95% of people are fine without a charger at all, but the risk is always there. A good charger for this process should run at least 10-30AMP's at 12 volts. A trickle charger is typically only 2-3amps

    I’m struggling getting mine to connect to ECU. My genius computer client says it’s on revision 1.01.11. It won’t update even though it says update completed. Any ideas? Waiting on tech support and I can’t wait much longer

      We can't legally give out tech support over UA-cam, so unfortunately waiting for them to get back is the best bet, but please let us know what had to be done.

    • @vivid_racing
      @vivid_racing  Рік тому

      The stage 2 probably won't remove the check engine light. However, we do offer the race exhaust feature to the tune, that solves the issue of running a race exhaust without the lights coming on while you are at the track!

    Question: My Mygfile.fpf is only 6.14kb but my new tune is 7.5mb
    Is this a problem?I'm I thought the file sizes needed to be the same in order to load the tune?

      Fpf is usually a ID only so that’s fine

  • @xxthehuskycaboosexx
