F10 N20 JB4 Drivetrain Malfunction Error

Hi All,

I recently upgraded my stage 1 to JB4 but when I plugged in the JB4 I kept getting a Drivetrain Malfunction error but I don't see any active error code thru OBD..... email Jon from Burgertuning.... he said it should be just plug and play.... He said I have to get the USB cable first to see what's going on......

Any of you experienced this before????
