Vafc help!

[Gorilla Unit 33]

i installed my Vafc last night after double checking all the wires and connection i took the car for a test drive. for some reason now i have a 7k rev limiter! how the **** do i change this. Ive taken the car to 7800 and never had a problem, before the Vfac. Im still learning the adjustments with it but every where i read on the online pdf, it doesnt show one adjustment for a rev limiter.

im almost positive its in the settings somewhere.....make sure your settings are all correct

if you happen to know what setting it is let me know. HVt is set at its highest needle point at 9k so i dont know why when im at wot i cant get past 7k

[LSHatch]

I don't remember the AFC having any kind of revlimiter setting.

Check for anything that says 7k anywhere. It could be something stupid. What are the VTEC settings?

can you post up the settings on the afc. is all the wiring correct?

Did you make sure it is set for a 4Cyl? I don't know if that makes a difference, but you never know.

Make sure you have the setting right for the motor selection. I believe it's number 4. (It's been awhile, I used a V-AFC on my turboed civic)

Try setting both hi and low corrections to zero. And set your v-tec to stock setting. My car went crazy at first when I was tunning mine.

the motor selections with the arrow going uo, its the right motor selection. Im just taking it out though tonight this is too much b.s. plus Ive talked to numerous different tuners all day yesterday and they cant figure this out, they said its probably a defective unit or sumtin because all the connectons are good but the vafc isnt suppose to have any controll over revlimiting. not only that but it reset yesterday when i was on the highway i held wot for about 30 seconds or more it changed the whole fuel maping, unless i was at 100% throttle, i watched my wideband go straight to 10.0, At IDLE even. so i had to start restart the car and it went back to normal but something is deffinately up with this unit.

i just read all three pages of that, seems like the vtm wire wasnt hooked up correctly. i know mine is connected but who knows maybe it came loose. either way this **** is coming out tonight. next week getting chipped with chrome and dyno tuned

[LSHatch]

Yeah, you'll find the AFC isn't that cool nor useful.

I took mine out after a week. Now EMS..... lol.
