Red face ROM definition for ECU

I tried to read my rom, dowloads fine but definition is not good. ECU code 9642007. Help would be great, insults probably deserved

I can look at it if you e-mail it to me, if it closely matches something that requires only a small amount of editing, I can create a definition that works with it.. If its gotta come from scratch, then we'll have to wait for Jason or Colby to give some input.

i have the same ecu number. i opened it as 96420008. the only difference is the idle step lookup table, where the scaling is all screwed up. leave that as is.

Does ECUFLASH writes the entire image back into the ROM or only those fields that have been changed? I'm wondering if its safe to just define the rev limit/speed limit/fuel/ignition maps, tune it and flash them into the ROM while leaving the other maps undefined with screwed up scaling. Right now, I'm not sure if the screwed up maps will be flashed into the ECU and crash the ECU or something.

No, it only writes the portions that are altered from the rom you started with..

Why don't one of you post up the ROM(s) in question - either here or on openECU.org. I'm sure it won't be very difficult to fix the XML definitions.

It's already up @ OpenECU.org under this thread -> http://forums.openecu.org/viewtopic.php?t=563

When I open up the ROM with ECUedit, I can see alot more fields than under ECUFlash. So basically, I just want to use the fuel/ignition maps without worrying about the other undefined fields messing up the ECU when I reflash it.
