GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Today coming home from work my truck was feeling a little funny.( SLOW). I noticed the lights on my comp were going on &amp; off in different patterns and the 1st fuel light won`t come on at all.<br>I checked all connections, still the same. Has anyone had this happen?<br> Danny

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Yeah you are probably in the sub menu. to go back to main menu, first turn it up to 5 if you want and turn it off. then turn it back on and it will be fixxed then set desired level. If your like me 5X5.

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Well it turned out to be the Box. I have to say Edge Products are great to deal with. I called monday morning talked to Aaron and had a replacement box in my hands the NEXT day.<br>Small overnight charge well worth it. Can`t believe the difference the other box must have been Bad from the start and continued to get worse.<br> Danny

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Occasionally, mine will light up every other light and not do anything till I unplug it. Sometimes it won't come on at all. It also surges after running it on 3x3. I need to send it back but have the money to. Considering the thing is like a year old or something, I don't think there is a warranty on it any more.

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

I have had my comp installed for a few months now, but just here recently when I change the settings on the fly the truck seems to miss a beat at each level change. It's not bad by any means, but didn't do it at first. Just wondering if anyone else has this happen so that I know if it's normal.

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Mike, Mine was only 2 weeks old. At first it seemed fine, except for level 4 &amp; 5 above 2200 rpms it felt like it was getting to much fuel and had a hard time reving past 2500 rpms. It steadily got worse, last day it totally defueled @ 1400<br>if I shut the box off it would not even make enough power to make 5psi of boost(which made no sense, I was thinkin lift pump. but still had 16 showing on gauge) After new box its day &amp; night difference.Lights were working all funny also. I checked all connections. I did move the + wire to the blue wire coming down the steering column, buddy told me its much better power than tapping the panel.<br>I knew something was wrong when I almost couldn`t make it home.<br> Danny<br> Blue Try turning the sub level up .3 is as low or lower delivery level than stock, You`ll get a pop in the rpm when you let off the pedal.

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

If I run mine on 3x3, then put it back down to 1x5 and am crusing, the truck will surge BAD. If I put it on level 2x3, the surge disappears.

Re:GOOD COMP~BAD COMP?

Send it back mine does nothing to what you guys are saying. No surging no lights flashing no anything just works all the time! I can run any level and the box works perfect. No probs what so ever.
