Default Problem with Apexi PFC

Got a fault with the commander I think as it doesnt give a boost reading any more. All other functions work fine.
I've tried altering the layout but that has no affect.
My normal boost gauge works fine too and performance is still the same..

Anyone got any ideas??

The hose has probably come away from the MAP sensor.



The hose attaches at the bottom there, and the map sensor is mounted in front of the driver's side suspension turret

Everything seems to be plugged into the maf. There is nothing else loose anywhere that I can see.

Go to the "ETC" menu and select the "Sensors/Switches" screen - What voltage do you get against "BST" (MAP Sensor) with the ignition turned on and also with the engine running? - If the displayed voltage reading is highlighted in black, then it's probably faulty if the sensor is plugged in correctly, and the vacuum pipe is securely fitted

Ok all sorted now, there was a split in the pipe coming off the map sensor.

Cheers for the advice guys
