Re: Transistor elimination.

Can anyone verify this? I'm going to the mod soon, and don't have any space on the heat sink. I was thinking about making another heat sink and bolting it to the backside of the board, but this would be infinitely easier and less cluttered.

Thank you.

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

Update for those that helped and future reads.. I bought and installed another daughtercard, and reloaded the code and everything works perfectly. Thanks for your help guys.

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

ok Thank you! While that kinda sucks, at least I can finally finish the board while ordering a new one (or maybe upgrade to ms3 daughtercard).

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

Ok... so I used a 12 volt source (while uploading the firmware and connecting to TunerStudio) and I still cant get the TPS to give me an ADC reading lower than the max (1023). Here's where I'm at so far:

-probed pin 19 (ground) and pin 26 (tps) from under the daughter card socket with a multimeter ...

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

I reloaded the code and I didn't have any luck receiving a different value for the TPS calibration. I AM, however, using a 9v battery (the board hasn't been fully built/soldered and I'm using the Megastim battery hook up).

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

haha..

i checked the min and max, and the processor isn't seeing the min value (or any other value than one). no matter what position the POT is in, it shows 1023.

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

Ya, the voltage Does vary from 0-5v. Does that mean the daughtercard is bad? If so, is there a way to verify it?

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

i checked the resistance from POT ground to pin 7-8-9-10 and got 95 ohms (which is what the schematic says [100ohm] should be for the V2.21stimulator). any other ideas? i checked all the diodes ive installed so far (checking for direction), the resistors, and i played with the VR pots (turning them ...

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

ok i tested between pin 22 (the tps in from the stimulator) and the ground (which i chose pin 19 or 18 as they are both sensor grounds) and with it all the way open/closed one way (i don't know which it is on the stimulator) i measured 4.308v and when i turn the knob all the way to the other extreme ...

Re: Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HE

I'm using the MegaSquirt Stimulator v2.2.
Im pretty sure the RPM shouldnt work because i've yet to jumper (or install the resistor per the instructions for modifying the MSII to be used with a Ford Mustang TFI) where D2 is supposed to sit.
I'm happy to hear about the temperature ports behaving as ...

Testing the Megasquirt II during installation. please HELP!

So I'm assembling an MS II with 3.0 PCB... tested the serial and power circuits and everything was fine. Using TunerStudio MS for mac.
I'm having trouble testing that the TunerStudio shows the sensor adjustment on the Stimulator. I'm following the installation manual as well as using the mods to ...
