5.2 Calibrate TPS and FPS:

WARNING: The Following Steps MUST BE Completed!

5.2.1



Read through these instructions entirely before performing work.



DO NOT attempt to start the motor during TPS & FPS Calibration process.



The motor must NOT be running during this process.



Personal injury may result if the Calibration Process is not completed properly.



DO NOT modify ANY settings other than those discussed below. Doing so may result in an uncontrollable throttle condition.



DO NOT perform this process with the craft in the water. Remove craft from water and perform Calibration Process on a trailer or work stand.



DO NOT perform this process if your throttle cable is damaged and/or sticking.



DO NOT perform this process if your hand throttle or throttle body has been modified. This includes electrical wiring. Contact RIVA Racing for more information.

If you have sent a NEW Calibration file to the ECU and the ECU is still ‘ONLINE’ you must power cycle the ECU before continuing. If a power cycle is not performed the process detailed below will not complete successfully. Power cycle the ECU by pressing the ‘F4’ key to make sure a ‘Store’ has been performed. Remove the Brown/Yellow ground wire from the engine and replace shrink wrap cover making sure exposed wire is protected.
