Question PSi3/Ecutek monitor users - does you air flow voltage read 0.00V?

I've got one of the latest PSi3 graphical monitors (the ones with user tune, road dyno etc). I've set up the data pages how i want them but i've noticed both the air flow voltage and rear o2 sensor voltages read 0.00V all the time. Engine load, air flow (grams/sec) and air fuel ratio all read fine which use the voltages mentioned to calculate the data so i know the sensors aren't duff. I have also connected the laptop and logged these values with Enginuity and Ecu Explorer and they read values fine, vary as expected. So again i know for sure the sensors are ok. So why does the PSi3 read 0.00V .

I'll e-mail Simon and ask but he may be away or busy as he's not answering e-mails about another subject, so in the mean time anybody else notice this? The car is a MY06.

Tony.

PS also my throttle reads 3% in the PSi3 when lifted completely off, the laptop programs read 0%....

TPS in delta dash will read around 3% while Accelerator position reads at 0% - they get closer further up the range.

They are actually 2 separate sensors. The DBW ecu's interpret accelerator position to get to a throttle position depending on engine speed etc.

The MAF reading should definitely not be 0 though - I would have a work with PSI as it has to be a fault.

Of course. forgot there are two sensors you can view. So the PSi3 is looking at TPS while i was logging accel pos, hence the difference.

Cheers,

So your air flow value is stuck... mine varies as expected, its just the air flow voltage value that doesn't. E-mail now sent to PSi3.
