Ethanol display glitching

[B58_blake]

Neither did I. Tuner didn't have much input with the issue. Was told it could be either the -
1. Harness is damaged
2. Flex Fuel sensor
3. Reflex+ box
4. Connectors not plugged in all the way

So I went from cheapest to most expensive. I took off the harness and inspected it for damage(nothing), Reinstalled it making sure everything is perfect(nothing), replaced the Flex sensor(nothing), then replaced the Reflex+(fixed issue).

its super easy to load the firmware. There is a couple videos showing you how, and on Motiv's site they have instructions. If can PM me if you need help with it!

I’m going to try my luck and the easy things first as well. if not I will prolly reach out mess with the firmware.

You have the right idea, let me expand.

1. Flex Fuel Sensor is faulty- I've seen a lot of this lately
2. Flex Fuel Sensor plug not seated all the way
3. Ground issue
4. Reflex input issue - attempt updating the firmware before replacing/swapping out - Contact Motiv for RMA
5. Damaged harness - You have to be really careless to damage our harnesses, so often this is not the problem

I do have an extra sensor brand new I could swap. But when I was using your flex fuel kit it didn’t have any issues.

Is the update firmware the one listed on your website?

It's on MOTIVs website

You'll need their firmware tool, TunerPro RT

Firmware tool handles the .hex file
TunerPro RT handles the .bin file

They have instructions

Does updating the firmware mess with your software already on the reflex?

You'll need a calbration that is compatible with the firmware you are loading in.
