barometric Pressure circuit malfunction

[AuSpec Vr4]

Hey

I recently have installed my ECMlink v3 on my Vr4 and have got this DTC from the computer and check engine light. It does come back after the ecu has been reset. I only got the ecmlink yesterday and due to previous setup with a Sonata ECU i was using a Sonata MAF with the wires pushed into the maf Plug. I have sourced a MAF plug for my Galant and have put it on but there are two cables the same colour (green with stripe) does it matter if these two are switched around because i was asuming they were grounds and i'm guessing this is the source of my problem. Keep in mind this car is stock with the 1g MAF aswell, no modifications have been done.

Cheers

Yes it does matter.
One is for the Idle position switch and the other is the Barometric wire.
Mitsubishi must have employed a colour blind tech when they built these!
I would try switching them around myself.

All sorted switched around the wires and no more error, just the Knock sensor circuit error to fix and all is well

if ur getting check light for a knock sensor, its most likely ur sensors just old and doesnt read properly anymore, i had the same problem so i just disabled the fault code for the knock sensor,

Yes, a brand new genunine mitsi knock just went in with a new 02 sensor, now i'm getting knock and flat spots in the throttle where timing is being taken out.

this could be a dumb question........is the knock sensor installed in the correct position on the block? there are two spots it will screw into.

I'm running 12 pounds of boost with all stock intake, 1g maf and stock Aus spec intercooler, it's pinging because of this heat, im going down to my car now to check my logs and take some timing out where it's knocking, its only taking 2-6 Degrees of timing. But it makes a big difference

I had a look at the last log and god there was some knock, 12 Degrees max in some peaks, i have tuned alot of it out now and have taken it for a run and am only seeing 0.4 knock which i'm not going to even worry about. Car feels much better.
