I tried to enable my fans last night, on my running/driving swap, which uses an 03 Tahoe PCM. It do not know what I am doing wrong, but I could not get it to work, however I skipped all the AC commands because my swap does not have AC. Could this be the cause? I did a read entire when I was done and the turn on/off temps I entered were in the tune, I enabled the fans for series parallel under vehicle systems, BOOLEAN is not checked. PCM is not sending turn on signal to the fan relays.

So im dong an ls/vortec swap to an 70 El Camino. Donor Truck was a 2000 suburban with the 5.3 engine.. First I was able to disable Vats using universal Patcher and PCM hammer.. and it worked it started fine.. but the fans did not kick in.. so i thought it needs more messing around with the settings.... This is my 3rd PCM ECU I bricked when trying to enable the fans....(PCMs dont enable the fuel pump nor respond to a scanner) I tried flashing the original BIN from RECOVERY mode more than once. Flashing them with LS Droid or PCM Hammer. at 1x or 4x, Reflashing them at 14.2volts nothing brings them back to life. I get no errors when flashing them all results are successful. What did I do wrong? Flashing them at 12.3 volts? Or completely Disabling the Rear O2 sensors, EGR and Evap DTC codes? Please Help! ECUs/PCMs are expensive!

If you could gather used oem parts needed for a really low price from a self pull junk yard or other resource it’s the way to go. I wouldn’t jump in and buy all new and have hundreds of dollars in parts. I think I had a little over $90 in that set up I did in that video. $50 for the fans and 40 for the harness along the front with the fan fuse box. A little more than I wanted to pay but cheaper than people were listed them on marketplace. You having an 03 may need the wider radiator to get the oem fans to fit correctly. I was doing a 2500HD and it had the correct size radiator.
@RoadCase Ай бұрын
@brandongarnold my 03 Escalade has the LQ9 so I've got the larger radiator luckily. Stapleton42 on KZbin has a nice video where he installed a factory efan setup on a yukon and also added the factory relay block next to the underhood fuse block. I'd love to go that route and use these free programs to program my pcm. What other software would I need to use? PCM Hammer?

I grounded my pin, was able to read my p59, wrote a full flash with a bin I found to match my os , wrote the full flash no problem, I can scan and clear the pcm but when I put it in the truck I have a dead key acting as if it's still bricked, can anyone point me in the direction of what I'm doing wrong
@brandongarnold 2 ай бұрын
VATs may be your issue if you wrote a file that was not original to your truck. There will be a fault code logged for this if you look at active faults with a scan tool. If this is actually the case a passlock relearn must be completed or you can just disable VATs within the bin file before writing the file to the PCM. Here is a link on how to perform the relearn. Used the passlock procedure. Do not use the passkey 2 or 3 procedure. www.cardone.com/content/Products/PT77-0011.pdf

@brandongarnold 3 ай бұрын
I probably didn’t mention it in the video because that was a 2004 I was working on with but on the 99-02 you need to find the Auto_Recirculation_Option table and uncheck the box for it. Factory settings use pin 33 to control the recirculate door. Unchecking it changes settings over to fan control from that pin. That would be high speed fan though not low speed. You would then have to replace the a/c high pressure 2 wire switch with a 3 wire high pressure sensor and wire it to the pcm pin 45 in connector 1 and the pins 14 and 80 in connector 2 to get the fans working fully functional with the A/C.

I noticed in some of your saved tune files there are notes about "lean cruise". I'm using HP Tuners (currently trying to un-brick my P59 after trying my very first flash that failed), and I know HPT doesn't let you mess with the settings to enable it... I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction for enabling this feature, as it's one of the main reasons I'm beginning to learn tuning. PCM Hammer plus another tuning program? Any insight would be greatly appreciated (and a video would be even better!)
@brandongarnold 4 ай бұрын
Here is the link to the lean cruise patch. It only works with the 7603 operating system so if your pcm is running another you would have to swap over. Once you open the bin file and the patch xdf you apply the patch the save the bin. You will then have to do an entire write with the new bin file. Once the entire write is complete any changes to the lean cruise stuff will work. pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7762

@brandongarnold 4 ай бұрын
I basically save a base file before I make any changes. Then I save a file every time I make a change. Usually rewriting the previous file works but I have had to rewrite the original file first to get it unlocked then rewrite the previous file. If it’s a stock untouched pcm and you haven’t even been able to get the file read and saved it may be an issue with your OBD tool or a power supply issue. From what I remember you must be a certain point just over 12 volts.

Those seem to be the stock settings across the board for all LS engines. Honestly my stock truck came factory with a fan clutch and after installing electric fans I went back and just dropped the fan settings down several degrees. Fan 1 I set the low to 210f and high to 215f. I set the Fan 2 low to 215 and the high to 220. I just type F to C in the google search and a conversion calculator pulls up at the top of search list. Just enter what temp you want in F and it tells you the temperature in C. Just play with the temp settings if need be. If you find your fans stay on excessively you can always raise the temps back up some.
