    Yes it needs to be 12v I think or there could be issues. I didnt have a battery charger, so I hooked it up to another truck and let it run for 32 min and it worked

    What did you do to your truck exactly? Scott and I are going back and forth on my UCON configuration (stock ECM + UCON + S/C). Adding a wideband sensor to the UCON to aid in troubleshooting.

    UCON EMS - eTuneLite and flash content?

    what is the ucon usb stick for?
    Have you managed to use USB stick by this way?

    I’d like to switch between couple of maps.

    I have dual LC-2 widebands wired to the UCON expansion harness. So when I do logs I can compare what the WRAFs and widebands are reporting. Pretty neat.

    I’d like to also wire in my boost sensor and fuel pressure sensor. Scott said it’ll work but I need to find sensors with published transfer functions so we can tell UCON/uTune how to interpret the data.

    I’m going to ask gadget if he has any leads on sensors to use with the UCON. I’d be surprised if he didn’t already have something figured out for that.

    UCON has a lot of add’l inputs that nobody uses. Seems like a waste to me.

    Starting my UCON install. Have the UCON attached to the new ECU & can't figure out what the USB extension cord is for - I see where to plug it into the UCON, but just don't know what to do with the other end.

    It snowed last night. High was in the low 40's. Truck won't fit in the garage with the door closed - too long.
    I'm a girl, I get to whine once in a while, right?
