..anyway, I am still encountering this issue. With or without the tablet plugged in. It seems as though as soon as there is a loss of traction issue, the lights come on and stay on. I also had it happens when the RPM's dropped really low, like almost killing it when taking off. Not sure what's going on, car feels great though.

*IIRC, I'm on the B01C file.

Taking my BRZ in to Subaru for an oil change and to get an alignment after installing my springs. Should I flash back to stock?

if you are gonna sit in the car while they do the work, then no. But as that is against the insurance policy for a shop, I would say yes, better safe than sorry, and it only takes 5 minutes.

*IIRC, I'm on the B01C file.

So I have been able to recreate this issue on a consistent basis. Apparently it is happening when the RPM's drop below 750, BUT only after having been driven for a certain period of time(or past a certain speed, not sure which yet.) It seems as though the car is sensing it has stalled, but that is not the case. The car will drop below 750 rpm, and stay running just fine, but the errors will show. Does ANYONE have any clue as to why this would be happening?

*Also, I was never able to get it to come on with a loss of traction scenario, so disregard that, it's only appearing when the rpm's drop..

Flash it back to stock and see if it still does it. It could be (and likely is) unrelated to the OFT.

Ok, I'm gonna feel like a big idiot posting this but anyway, I figured it out. The same day I got the open flash tablet, I also got some marker lights. I installed the marker lights first, but somehow managed to touch wires, and popped a fuse. Well I searched around, and replaced the blown fuse. Little did I know, when checking the fuses for the bad one, I pulled out the 'BRAKE' fuse. Obviously it was good, so I put it back.. Or thought I did. I put it back in one slot too low, in a dead slot. So this whole time my brake lights haven't been working. I moved the fuse, and all seems good now. Wow. I feel really dumb right now. I have worked on vehicles my whole life, but this goes to show that sometime excitement can get the best of you...

I drove Kids Heart's car for 5 mins. Consider me convinced. I already placed my order for the OFT. It should be here Monday!

Can anyone help, I'm trying to upload v1.59 files onto tablet. Upgraded mgr to 1.09, downloaded V1.59 file. What's the process to upload to tablet? Every time I click on any option besides ModFiles Database I get an error message saying "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." Any help is appreciated!

Thx for the help guys but unfortunately I'm still getting the error. I've unzipped the file, added it to the fonts file in windows, opened up Ofm, but it's still giving me the error. When I open up the fonts folder, I can't find that file. Any other suggestions?
