Same here, and it happens to be correct in my case. However, the TS value is an itty, bitty number that might be correct for my Honda Accord. Bill says both these values come from the Calibration area of the PCM, and it happens to be the area that is changed (I think) when we tune the thing. You'd think the values retrieved would be the ones we've put in there during that last programming session, wouldn't you? However, this does not seem to be the case.

What's even more confusing (at least to me) is that the TS value I want to use is 2481 mm, and that's what I enter. Anytime I Load Previous Settings, I find it has been changed to 2484 mm. Now I know that 3 mm is pretty small (about one-tenth of an inch), but why is it changed at all? I recall Bill once saying that it was caused by some "rounding" of values by the software, but since 2481 is a whole number, it doesn't need to be rounded.

The engineer/programmer in me wants to know what REALLY happens!
