got a power fc on my 205 all set up last august by 2bar tunning. all ok up until last night when driving normal (4th gear 40mph) the e-man light came on for about 3-5secs then went out and came on again for about the same time. i pulled over to check my commander and didnt find anything wrong knock and intake temps normal.
i assume the pfc wont do flash code diagnostics?
anybody had problems like this?
thanks

nah knock was fine 33 at its peak.
it doesn't alter performance at all but today when the light came on it stays solid for 3 secs then goes out then back on for 3 secs ect wether at idle, on boost, all the time.
turned car off then back on and had no light
any ideas?

I think I've got some stuff about pfc error codes at home somewhere. I'll have a hunt about

Means a sensor is out of range...

did a sensor check and whilst the light was on the "LVL" one was switching on and off at the same time as the e-man light so what is it for?

Usually it's the Throttle Position Sensor that briefly goes out of range, what boost do you run, stock map sensor?

Hi, Have you got the AP Engineering Power FC or a mr2 unit?
If the latter have you defeated the CC system, not 100% sure if this is necessary when using the PFC but it may explain the LVL warning you are getting?
Are you able to view a voltage/resistance of the 'LVL'?
Not sure what LVL is tbh?

yeah its the pfc for the st205 and have found out that lvl is for the charge cooler coolant level. so i checked the piece of wire that i briged the connector with and found it was loose.
i must now remove that connector and solder the wires for a more permenant fix, didn't do it before cos i wasn't sure how i would get on with the fmic.
thanks
