Used air compressor to clean sensor, oops?

Used the air compressor to clean out the EBVP sensor, did it rupture the diaphram? my DP tuner is no longer working since doing this, and I'm wondering if the chip works off of the sensor.

Reps to you, Nick. That kind of generosity REALLY helps.

would that have caused the DP to stop working though, or would the problem maybe lie elsewhere? just seemed funny it stopped working at the same time.

I know Jody does use the EBP sensor in his tuning, there have been a few discussions on it in the past, but I would not think that it would cause the whole chip not to work.

Get on the bat phone man.

Wierd, now I think it was the cold. Thought that the engine was warm enough when I had the problems yeterday. Took a good drive today and everything work normally. floored it on the highway, puffed black smoke and a shove back into the seat... life is good.
