Default sprint booster problem???

well when i figured out my crank position sensor was shot i also had a code for the throtle position sensor, is this related to the sprint booster? i removed it since its gonna be at the stealership for the cps but on my way back from the dragon i was having alot of trouble with hesitation after driving at a steady speed for a long distance then pulling off the highway to refuel, it was like the maf was messed up then i shut the car off then turned it back on and all was fine, now i di get 1 other code too and that was for the maf i took it off and cleaned it cleared the code with a regular old obd2 scanner and it never came back. just wondering if anyone else has had these problems especially with the sprint booster since thats a real easy fix lol, or do you guys think my ecu is crapping out possibly?

I think a couple of people have had an issue where after a full peddle down acceleration, then coming to a stop there was no peddle response. They turned off the ignition, restarted, and away they went. Of course they got a new SB and their problem went away as well.

I have not had any issues with my SB (BDD 451A) to date (knock on wood).

Do a search on the threads, I'm sure that with all the XFI members that currently have or previously had an Sprint Booster; if there is a problem some member of XFI has found it, or experienced it!

I've sold my SB manual version, it really sucked. The throttle response was rough and not linear. Also had to reset the throttle all the time.

That is really strange I would say the problems were not related I have had a crank sensor go I think we all have. AS for the throttle position sensor thats a new one for me.. The people who had full throttle problems with the SB returned them and got new ones or there money back. To date I think I have only herd of two people with faulty SBs I have had them on both my cars now and never had any problems. As for the Manual version yes it is very agressive and not linear sometimes its not even fun to drive like that.

Before you start having the knuckleheads at the dealership start screwing with your car, have them do a full diagnostics scan and print the current & pending codes (DTC's) This must be done with the StarScan system that is Crossfire specific...

Then post the codes here...
