Jb4 help! Reduced power after install

eddi3B. · 09-16-2014, 08:41 PM

So I just installed my jb4 w/ewg and flex fuel wires. Uploaded ewg firmware and now in getting two codes.. Reduced power/ short to waste gate . Can anyone chime in. I don't think I installed the ewg wires incorrectly . What else can be causing that code?

Of course, trouble shoot and double check all connections.

"Reduced power/ short to waste gate"

You have a short. Check your wiring.

It's best to send pictures to BMS for advisement. They deal with troubleshooting installs daily so they are very proficient. Without pictures anyone is guessing.
