Shiwnath is on a distinguished road
With the Malibu PCM, it started and drove semi ok but the trip meter wouldn't increase as i drove and the fuel gauge didn't register a proper reading... I ended up having to take the Malibu PCM back and had to find a 2000 Alero PCM elsewhere which I should have done to begin with. I'm better off with the Alero PCM anyways because it's properly calibrated for the 3400 + 4T45E.

The car is properly running again, but my DHP refuses to read/write to the PCM BUT I can still data log and read/clear DTCs which is odd...I think it's partially fried. So I paid $500 For DHP only to have to return to stock calibration. I'm hoping that when my keyspan adapter arrives that it might work with my other laptop... I'm just hoping I fried the serial port on the old laptop and not the actual DHP interface itself. It's been a crappy experience but atleast my car runs again and I've learnt from this experience... I think I'm done modding for this year lol.
