Ok, here is my deal. I have had the Smarty for about a couple months now. Although I have been away from home on business. So I have not put a lot of miles on it. My problem is the HVAC controls do not work. The fan control will work, but nothing else. Not sure if this problem arised right after I loaded the Smarty or not. Today I was driving down the road a figured I would see if any of the controls would work. So I pushed the defrost button a couple of times and then the A/C button a couple of times. When I pushed the A/C button, all gauges fell to 0 EBS, Brake, check engine lights on. No mileage. It said bus error. I have these to codes. P1652 (J1850 Communication Bus short to ground) and P0602 (Control Module Programming Error/NotProgrammed).

Before the fight breaks out, I am not bashing Smarty, the power is awsome. But if it killed my ECM, I will not be happy.

Anyone have any ideas.

 

the ecm has nothing to do with the hvac controls. The P0602 is a fueling error and is only a nuisance code.

I would look elsewhere.

 

Did you ever figure out if your problem was, WITHOUT A DOUBT (meaning some kind of real findings), the Smarty?

 

Well Something IS wrong with the Smarty. I tried to load the stock program back and it came up and said internal error 7. So then I loaded a Catcher program back in.

I am not saying that the Smarty has anything to do with the Hvac controls. It is just odd that when I pushed the A/c button everything went to 0 and I then had codes???

 

please give me a call and let me see if I can help you

If I offended you, it was not intentional.

I was not saying your problem could not be the Smarty. It is electrical/electronic which means it is subject to failure just like an ECM, fuel pump, sensor or the radio.

Please keep us informed on what you kind............

 

Figure it out on here, not through pms etc, so everyone can learn from blcconrods problem

 

No no, you didn't offend me. I did not mean to come across like that. I am just frustrated that I am having these problems. And I think they are linked to the Smarty because I have never had any of these problems before.

Bob do you have a stock program you can send me. Because I can't load my stock program back in?

Thanks, Brad

 

It will be posted here I just need info from a person with a name so I can better provide technical assistance.

 

Right On Bob

 

Just to let everyone know, I just got off the phone with Bob. He is going to speek with Marco tomarrow and see what he thinks. They definetly stand behind there product.

 

I have no clue... I've been to the dealer and they can't figure it out. Suprise suprise....

I've tried to get ahold of John at Floor It because some people have told me he might know how to get it fixed.

Possibly he might know what to do with your problem. Hopefully he can get mine back to normal...

 

blccoonrod the first time I had loaded the smarty my ac would not even come on so I unloaded it and then it work. Then I loaded it again it did the samething so I left like that and after a few start it had finally started working and have not had problem since. I am not saying the smarty was the problem it seem funny when it was loaded it didn't work and unloaded it work but I haven't had problem since though.

 

rstone thank you for your input it is much appreciated

Luken, John has sold a few smarty's too without one complaint.

If we can deliver a better product in the future you know darn well we will.

We have lots of future plans

 

The defrost button....which one is that.....the mirror heater button...that is one whacky problem.....but where exactly do you live that you need A/C today as it is -15 degree C where I am ya lucky dog. ks
