Hi All,

Quick question.
I store my car in the winter, and right now the battery is completely dead.
Does this mean I have lost my tune/mappings on my eManage Blue?
Thanks in advance

I think I read in the manual that the unit stores your stuff. It would really suck if it didn't because I always flip the breaker on my car to cut power so I can work on it.

The emb stores the info to an internal chip which does not need to be powered to maintain the map. It's also how greddy can ship their turbo kits with pre-loaded maps on them. You should be fine. Make sure you always keep your map saved to your hard drive and then also one to flash drive incase your HD takes a dump.

Thanks for the info.
After doing all my upgrades, I had my car tuned on a dyno by a tuner and he used his own equipment. I don't have a copy of the maps.
Is it easy to make a copy of the maps?

I would think its just a matter of when you are connected with your support tool, and have the map loaded on the Support Tool software, you just click "File" on the top menu, "Save As" on the drop down box, select location and name the file and you should be Golden.
