Few Questions from a Soon to be ALP Owner

[kasher1979]

Yes thats what I was thinking about doing next. I hope its the cable I would hate to have to change the sensor but we will do what we gotta do.

I will let you know what happens.

If your wire length permits I want you to swap the 2 CPU cables AT THE DIN connectors.In other words, -
1. Take the Driver side MALE DIN & plug it into the Pass. Sensor.
2. Take the Pass. side MALE DIN & plug it into the Driver Sensor.

Tell me which side in not working now.

Ok now the passenger side isnt working and the driver side is. So looks like its the cable

I am very happy it is just cable and not the sensor. Outwise I would have had to rip sensor out, relevel new one etc.

I'll express you a new cable on Monday.

Thank you!...

I tried going out and cleaning pin sensors to the other side as well with no luck. That is very strange. Everything on the cable appears to be perfect. I love these cables too nice and thick and quality looking rather than just a telephone cord.

Glad we found the prob tho. Leave it to me to get something bad. I am probably your first problem with anything. Lol

I notice this unit seems more high quality than any other .

After firmware has been loaded I am assuming that it doesnt really "reload" the same firmware. The reason I ask is because I went ahead last night and redid all of the files and process and it did not appear to load firmware like it did the first time I think it loaded the setup file though

Might be pinned wrong on the modular connector end. If you have a crimping tool you can cut the end off and put a new one on. I will replace it either way but if you are anxious you can give it a shot if you have a crimping kit.

It will check the firmware and determine if an upgrade is needed. Since you had it installed already it wasn't necessary.

Ok thanks for all the help! I dont have crimping kit and I would probably just mess things up. Not sure which wires go in what order anyway. I will probably just wait for new cable. By then maybe I will feel like working on it anyway.

I am really looking forward to the voice alerts coming.
