Call AEM and speak to one of the engineers they will help you or email you what you need.

I did that and the settings and it won't start car no matter how much I change the start maps. That's the only reason I was asking if anyone was running that setting

Did you check for stat synch? I know when I was setting up my AEM S2 and that wasn't setup car wouldn't start at all. Found out my CAS plug wasn't on all the way.

Yes I checked that an notice that it takes about 5-8 seconds before it would come on. That's with the aem settings they gave me. N it kicked my starter.

Check your timing. Lock your timing on the aem, unplug or turn off your injectors, connect timing light #1 cylinder, crank it and see where it hits on the timing marks at the crank. If it's not hitting where it should be, your tooth count for the firing order on the aem is not correct. Figure out what the tooth count should be for that cylinder and add/change to the correct number for the rest of your timing order. Also look up how to get an accurate timing using a spark plug wire connecting the coil and plug as oppose to the extra lead/loop on the coil wiring harness.

Yes I have done this and still no go. But going back over everything I think I'm seeing my issue.

Well I have really dumb question but I came across a issue that could have been messing me up this whole time.



So I have rb26 head n rb30 block but I forgot that I have r33 rb25 series 2 harness. The issue is that the coils have the ignitor in it which are no longer in the car. How is my car running without an ignitor and was running fine on power FC without it?

You answered your own question. Keep us posted I'd like to know what the problem was. I saw where you sent out the ecu to aem to look over again.

The V1 AEM doesn't require the swapping of trigger wheels. Only the v2. I'm not even sure AEM was making trigger wheels when the V1 came out. Put the stock trigger wheel back in it.

I had a 30-6620 on my car. I bought it new. They send you a new trigger disk with it and tell you that it must be swapped before attempting to start the vehicle.

As for the series1, I am not certain but have always heard that it was not necessary.

From what aem is telling me it was designed while series one was the only version bc of the issues they were having but made it mandatory for series 2 they just stop developing the aem pro so it didn't get the update for PnP
