Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras - View Single Post - Need Help with either ECU or tuning programs

Stupid question... I have to ask because I have done it myself with my old WRX...

Are you connecting the green diagnostic jumpers as well as shorting the two programming pins/installing a shorted connector? I assume you have a bug eye ECU which requires both to flash with anything but a real time COBB map AFAIK.

Does ROM Raider see the ECU? Are you sure the cable has the programming pin hot?
