Default installed stage 1, bike wont start!

help! spent saturday putting on stage 1 from fuel moto. Put on header, jackpot mufflers, and roland sands air cleaner. Went with the power commander plug and play. Bikes turns over but wont catch. Bypass commander, fires right up. Missing a great ride with friends today. Wil call tech support mon, hopefully somwone here knows whats wrong. The power commander came preloaded with map so I am assuming i dont have to hook up to lap top? Regretting I did this stage 1.

Put your original A/C back on and ride it. Fix it on Monday.

I'm wondering if you have the PC plugs in securely. I've installed quite a few of them and some match up easier than others. I'd first make sure ALL the ecm connections are secure then hook up my laptop computer and select "get map" to see if what I thought was down loaded is actually there. The notes on the PC software should give you an idea if it's the one for your bike, then again, since you got a canned map, it's hard to say what will be in the "notes". I'd still follow that procedure. And for those that told you to put the A/C back on and ride it, may have not realized you also disconnected your O2 sensors to properly use the PCV.

You won't be sorry you did the stage 1. It is probably something very simple.

make sure the map is loaded. and are your o2 sensors hooked up ? did you put the maxi fuse back in? kinda hard to believe it wont start. sometimes its harder to start but not starting is strange

I would say unhook it ride today then call Keith tomorrow if what said above doesn't work. I don't think one ride is going to hurt anything.

unplug it, check that pins inside are not bent, put dielectric grease in the connector and put it back on and make sure that the lever locks in place on both ends of the cable.

if that doesn't resolve it, i agree. unplug it and ride.. deal with it monday. you're not going to do any damage just that your lambda/afrs will be off and you'll get some popping from the exhaust..
