Theres a few on the megajolt site, have a look there first .You will need to adjust it to suit your set up though.
Save it to a folder on your PC and then using the configerator open the file to see it on the config screen.Then select the write ignition configaration to ECU button and the commit to flash button on the top tool bar.

What he /\ /\ said. do you have good comms with the laptop If so its easy to load the map from hard drive into config software and upload to MJLJ brain. Just remember to comit it otherwise when you switch of ignition it reverts back to last committed map.

Did you get TPS calibrated OK?

Ok, downloaded a specific map last night for our Zetec runing on 45s! also downloaded the latest config so had a bit of a play. Understand how to load up maps now but how do you comit that map? Also just realised tat the lead that came with the Megajolt wont fit my laptop?

It sounds as if you will need a USB converter lead as the megajolt is most likely supplied with a 9 pin serial lead.
To commit the map to flash you just have to click on the commit to flash button before powering the unit down , if you dont do this the original map is loaded again after powering off.
As said above you will need to calibrate the TPS first before doing any tuning and then after any adjustments to the carbs for tickover etc that alter the tps position.
Maplins sell a serial to usb converter that seems to work well.

OK. all sorted now. I solved the problem of the cable now by moving the home Pc out into the garage, hehe. What a pain! I couldn't get the new program that I downloaded to work so I just used the one that came with it on a CD. It now shows what map I had on the Megajolt so I then uploaded the new Map that I downloaded for a 2L Zetec on 45 s and committed it. WOW what a diference. runs so nice. I then manualy callibrated the TPS with a volt meter. Next I then used the Megajolt config to and the web site to calibrate the TPS properly. I then set the load bins acordinly and committed that. was going to give it a run but don't want the neighbours complaining, haha. Should run so much beter but I will have to wait till tomora now!
