i have read this pdf many times but it does not say anything about troubleshooting. i bought the pc3 usb from rothmans(august enterprice) on ebay and the local dealer of dynojet does not want to fix it

thanks anyway

you have a gp shift and may need a push V.S. pull type of transducer.

Did you lose the map as well, or just the Quickshifter/accelerator pump features? Try enabling the Quickshifter again with the small CD that comes with the device. QS should be recognized automatically by the PC software after that.

This would suggest that you need a newer version of the PCShiftKillEnable application after firmware update.

My suggestion: save your map, reset the Powercommander unit, competely uninstall all Powercommander related applications on your computer, download the latest versions of all software from Dynojet, re-install, plug your computer, re-load your map and see what it says. I suppose you have checked the signal from the QS sensor to the PC box connector?

Resetting the PC unit:

"To "Reset" the Power Commander, go to the "Tools" menu and select "Environment Options." In the Environment Options screen, hold the control key (Ctrl) down on the keyboard and hit "R". This will bring up a "Reset Power Commander" button. Select this option and let the software reset the unit."

Edit: Oh, did you mention that the light in the QS sensor doesn't go on at all? As far as I can recall, the light should go on even though the QS feature is not enabled in the SW. I'm not completely sure about this one though. You might try taking the sensor off (but leaving the power on) and moving the shaft back and forth to see if the light comes on at any point of the shaft's movement. A few weeks ago I just spent quite some time trying to figure out how my QS went nuts during the winter... At first I couldn't even start the bike since the sensor was constantly cutting fuel. Then I couldn't get the shift kill point right so the bike was running but I couldn't make a clutchless upshift (the kill point was too far up in the shift lever's movement range, worked fine when stationary but not at full throttle under load). After several rounds of adjustment I have finally got it working again. This episode seemed to be caused by several things, something to do with installing and adjusting rearsets and removing, installing, turning, and generally toying around with some parts of the shift mechanism.

BTW, what kill time were you using earlier? After my rough adjustments, I'm now at 65ms and it seems it could be significantly shorter. I don't specifically need the feature on street, I'm looking for smooth and fast shifts on track with no false neutrals.

mine is set at 60ms and i wouldn't go much faster for fear of stressing my transmission.

First of all, I would just install the newest version of the Powercommander Control Center software. It's available here.

Here's the PCShiftKillEnable.exe file, but I'm not sure of the version. I couldn't find it anywhere on the Dynojet site.

Here's some info on checking the QS signal.

Oh, and I would just contact the person who made the firmware update and let him know that the system is not functioning correctly. If they really are official Dynojet reps they should most definitely help you. Let us know how this turns out.

Some of you read the problem that i had, with the big hepl of Killa the dynojet quick shifter worked

those are the steps that i should have followed from the begin ,

1. Before you connect the QS check the version of firmware on your PCIII usb .Mine is now 2.3.2 i do not now if it works with previous edition but you must have this version or newer.

2. Second download and install the latest software of PCIII usb

3. Download or ask from your local dealer of Dynojet the PCShiftKillEnable.exe, connect your laptop or pc to PCIIIusb supply it with 9v battery and run the utility , on the screen select Enable Shift Kill

4.Close tbe PCShiftKillEnable.exe and connect the QS on PCIIIucb, push and pull the QS until the red light turns on

5. Install the QS on the bike, the ligth must be off or the engine does not start

6. Fint the right point (at the middle of QS) that the light is off and at the start of movement of upshift the light must turn on

I hope that will help


killa thank you very mucth i could not make it work without your help
