My16M, I'm totally new and confused.
04/20/13 at 02:25:23
 
Hello all, my names Jay and I have a Guzzi Jackal. I got the bike with the standard ECU and a My16M. The standard ECU doesn't prime the fuel system when the ignition is on, after the battery went flat and died. I put the My16M in and the pump primes. The problem I have is that she takes much longer to warm up, won't quickly settle to a decent idle when I stop and pull in the clutch, often dieing, and she smells like she is running rich. A friend who had the bike before me tried to lean her out a bit, but said he just messed things up.
Is there somewhere I can get a standard Jackal Map to download and install.
My only other option is to buy a used ECU and they start at about £390.
Please help...

Have you contacted me before? I checked my emails and was unable to figure out who you are.

Do you have the My16M? I would think a Jackal is either the MyP8 or My15M.

The friend bought the MyECU or he messed it up with the standard ECU?

The first step is to get the MyECU talking to the PC. Have you got this far?

The bloke I got the bike from is Tony Smith, I believe he was in touch with you a number of times. He told me it was a My16M. The problem he had with it, was that sometimes the fuel pump would not stop priming after 2-3 seconds.
My bike is  Moto Guzzi California Jackal. Where can I check which Myecu it's supposed to use?

Thanks for you help so far.

Tony did get confused about which ECU he had. You have the My15M MkII. The last email from him was Jan 2012 where he mentioned the fuel pump not shutting off. After 6 years of owning the My15M he hadn't done anything to the map other than change the TPS setting.

I think the best thing be to have the ECU checked out by me and upgraded to the latest firmware. The current firmware is from 2006 and there has been quite a few improvements since then

Do you have an Android device. Going that way with a bluetooth dongle would be a better start than staying with the PC software.

My wife has an android phone, which dongle would you recommend I get. Do you have an idea what sort of cost is involved in you checking out the ECU and upgrading to the latest firmware?
When up grading would you be able to load a map for the Jackal?
Thanks a ton for your help so far. Cheesy

Sorry to be a pain in the arse with all my questions, but is that $60 for the dongle? What would the total cost be for the checkup, upgrade, dongle and postage?

Would you be able to load a map for the Jackal?

Postage will be AU$24 so you'd be looking at $84.
My Cali map would be close to what you  want.
