Default Huh.. Maybe AEM issue?

So this has happened to me over the past two days,

I'll start the S, and my Boost gauge doesn't work, then subsequently my car dies. (CT supercharged)

However for the first few times the wideband worked fine.

Now the boost gauge doesn't come on, and Wideband looks like it's jumpin on crack.

Sometimes both gauges work fine, but more often than not she'll just die on me because of it...

Update, I was trying to limp back to my barracks room. For some reason if I kick at the wire and what not around the AEM by my left foot (very lightly) the Gauges tend to flicker on a little stronger.

I'm thinking a short somewhere? I checked all the connections and I can't find any that are loose... hm

Try checking the ground and make sure it's secure

Update, well I checked all the connections.

The serial port on the back of the AEM was good, but the screws were loose so I tightened them. I also found an exposed wire in one of the wire bundles. It was a clean cut so it obviously wasn't connected to anything, but it wasn't taped up and idk if it's a hot wire or not.

I pulled that wire out of the way as I don't have any electrical tape atm.

Now everything seems to be fine with gauges

Anyone have some advice on securing that stupid AEM? Thing doesn't like to fit in there as well as the ECU did.
