There is a guy over here (In Athlone), with a Synchmate who had a similar problem on his '98 diesel p38. He changed the engine ecu and it started ok. Had a load of electrical gremlins appear when he got it started....back doors superlocked, no lights on r.h. side of car, no horn etc.
Found a brown & yellow wire to the red multiplug on the engine bay fusebox had fried. When the fusebox was removed, the links connecting the upper and lower boards were all but corroded away and a few broken.
Have you mailed support@blackbox-solutions.com ?

hi irishrover,yes pm bbs guy never got back to me,i will check the fuse box when i manage to get the fooker opened,is there any where there is a wiring diagram that shows you the diagnostics to the ecu etc,cheers pat.
Personally, I would take Colin up on his offer as that would eliminate the Synchmate.
I seem to remember that some time ago I posted all of the OBD socket pinouts in response to your requset for help.
The wiring diagrams on RAVE have all the info.
thank's for the nice gesture colin,i am going to give it another couple of try's before i throw in the towel,and take up your offer of a replacement,cheer's pat.
Guess what !!!
The chap i asked you to send your EAS Kicker lite finally got to test it today and he tells me it works like a charm. In fact he does not really want to send it back to me but is now interested to resell them at shows and stuff ;-)
So i am guessing that you might have trouble with the replacement we sent you but at least now we know for sure that you must have a problem with your EAS system.
