utec issues with battery hookup
I'm trying to load a map on my utec using a 9v battery. I'm finding that I can get to the menu, but then after about 90 seconds it just freaks out and shuts down, then it wont start back up unless I unplug it and let it sit, as if its over heating.
anyone else have this problem?

this thing is driving me crazy.
if I go to load a map it gets to around 15-20% then just stops, then sometimes it goes back to the main menu and shows weird letters or it stays where its at and random letters $knbbbkdmw#$# go across the screen.
The picture attached is what happened at 19% while uploading a map.

Get a new battery, when they start to get low they lock up it happened to me and I just replaced the 9v they don't last very long.

I had the same problem with data garbage on my Tuner and seeing certain menu options, but not others, random crashes etc - when I first got it. In my case the firmware somehow got corrupted. So I reflashed it with a current .mot from TXS, and viola - fixed it right up~ No more issues. Reflashing the firmware is pretty painless with the flash utility TXS includes.

First battery was bad, 2nd batter was a name brand battery and it wouldn't stop working at random, however from the issues with the first battery crashing midway though loading a map, I had to reflash the whole thing and reupload the software and then upload another map.
now its working fine.
