car won't stay on
I'm having a problem with my car. I tried to start it after getting drivesoft installed but it turns on and immediately turns off. I checked my power FC and the boost setting is reading 2.12...it should be reading 0 obviously when turned to accessory. Is this the problem and if so, what could have caused this? The car started perfectly earlier today before install of drivesoft so I'm very confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are getting a boost reading w/o the car being started you might have a short in the wiring harness directly above the left front tire. The wire that goes to the MAP sensor on the firewall by the throttle body gets it signal from a coaxial wire, I have seen a FD w/o fender liners have the harness fall down on the tire, the outer part of the coax is ground and it shorts with the center. You can repair it and you'll most likely need a new MAP sensor as well.

As far as I know I didn't mess with any of that, but after unplugging everything and repositioning ecu everything went back to normal. Luckily I have a new harness sitting on the side for my new setup that I'm about to do so I'll just put on the new harness a little sooner than expected.
