MS2 HELP needed. unable to load Boatloading program in MS2

Post by HavocFiat »

Need some help

Facts:

Have working V2.2 board with MS1 processor, no issues. Loads, works great with stimulator. Can run and interact with Megatune and Tuner studio. No problems.
Purchase a MS2 V3.01, followed instruction from http://www.megasquirt.info/ to a T.
1) Place MegaSquirt-II™ into the 40 pin socket.
2) Be sure the bootloader jumper is in place.
3) Power up your MegaSquirt® controller.
4) 'Run' the file, and follow the directions that come up. This will install the downloader.

I have a MS2 Blue Board, therefore assuming I need the Monitor_v2.905.abs.s19 file.

Below is the message I get:
MegaSquirt Download 2.00

Reading C:/Documents and Settings/Fred/Desktop/Monitor_v2.905.abs.s19:
Detected MS-II (HCS12) code.
Entry point: 0x0000
Code range : 0x4000-0x3db360
File read successfully.

Opened comm port 2 at 115200.
ERROR: Timed out reading response, 0xE0
Elapsed time: 13.88 seconds


Tried comm port 1 and 3 (both work with my MS1 processor without issues. Same results.

Also I have LED PUMP and INJ2 light up on the stimulator board when MS2 is in, boot Jumper in.

Any thoughts??????????

A million thank you

I was online looking for a solution to the same problem... I was about to send out my daughterboard to get checked out, but I decided that maybe my power supply could be the problem. I swapped to a yamaha keyboard adapter, specifically DC 12V, 700ma.
I plugged it in, restarted the loader and successfully installed my file you mentioned. no problem. =)
I saw your comment, and once I figured mine out I felt like It could help, I hope it does!
