    Suspecting a connection problem but when i restart my car its allright.
    Happens at startup, more and more often.

    Please call Customer service if this doesn't work for you.. Probably, you have the power wire hooked to accessory power that turns off briefly as you turn the key to start position.

    Imagine it like this: you power on and it is powering up, , then you cut the power before it establishes complete communication with the ECU. Some cars are really bad for this, other are not. Change your wiring to a circut that stays how when you crank and it should fix it .

    One work around is to put car in the ON position, wait for V2 to communicate and go to preset 1, then start engine.

    Hope that helps.

    Yeah thats what i do, i put it on acessory and air up, then start my car.
    Could i plug it directly on my battery instead of my power supply box?

    If you wire it to the battery, then you will have the display and ECU active all the time. Probably not what you want.

    The best way to start it is ignition on, wait for ecu to communicate, then power car on

    Give us a call, it sound's like there still may be an issue with the ignition signal wire as Brian mentioned.
