A WOT switch is not much use, it can be used to raise boost target with BoostControl. In MegaTune you configure and calibrate the maximum and minimum TPS values (idle and WOT). You can also set the idle threshold value (1-2%). Only in some cases do you really need to know the exact position of the throttle plate. You can use a resistor grid with the stock "on/off" TPS, to make three distinct positions/resistance values (idle, in between, WOT). It has worked really well on this car: MembersPage/MattiasSandgren/BmwSevenTwentyEight The basic idea is to connect the TPS In (EC36-1) to a pullup resistor towards +5V (EC36-28) and a pulldown resistor towards GND. The pullup resistor is shorted by the WOT switch (raising TPS In to +5V) and the pulldown grounds the signal. To protect from a short (should never happen), connect a resistor between GND and the pullup resistor and Idle-switch so that there is a minium resistance to be met between +5V and GND at all times. Use 1K resistors, or similar size.

Afterstart enrichment has a cold value (config.awev=1D for +29% at -40C) and a scaler (config.awev_temp_scaling=A0 for 160/256 * awev) so it's downscaled at high temps (above 71C) * warmup enrichment Q: should I use the solenoid type or the mechanical type from the Ljet? What is the easiest and most reliable? [http://www.vems.hu/files/Marteleur%20Tim/idlecontrol1.JPG Picture of Auxiliary air valve (usually L & K-jetronic)] or this one from the motronic [http://www.vems.hu/files/Marteleur%20Tim/idlecontrol2.JPG Idle air solenoid] A: I'd use the Motronic to get the most control, it's a bit experimental but it would be neat if you could get it working properly. Gergely is working with this one on his BMW. You can find Gergelys work here: MembersPage/GergelyLezsak/IdleControl If you want to avoid the guesswork you can use the older bi-metal "Auxiliary air valve", it does a good and reliable job and is activated as the "fast idle" valve, and shuts off at a specific temperature. Q: When I use the Auxiliary air valve how will the electrical heating be ensured? A: There are two types of auxiliary air valves, most are electrically heated while a few early types are only heated by the engine block/head/coolant. When the valve is '''cold''' the blocking plate rotates or pivots to allow bypass air, when it's '''warm''' the blocking plate closes the opening. Both types have a bi-metal arm that moves the blocking plate and that is what is influenced by both engine temperature (by being bolted to the head usually) and the electrical heating on newer models. The engine temperature is the major factor on a warm engine, the electrical heating has little merit here and is usually controlled by the thermo switch usually found on the thermostat housing of engines equipped with these. You can use the default EC36-pin3 (P259, 4) to ground a relay that in turn delivers power to an electrically controlled auxiliary air valve. ---- '''Assembling V3.3''' Q: Can I follow the same instructions as for V3.2 for connecting powersupply and connectors for serial cable etc...? A: Yes, only the trigger connection is different, the 2x3 pin header now misses the south-east pin. Connect the northern middle pin to the north-east pin to get the primary-trigger forward.

Or is this done through the EC18? A: You can do it either way. If the box is mounted in a location that makes it hard to reach in there to connect the serial cable, it is a good idea to permanently mount a serial port in the car and wire it through the EC18-connector. I would recommend a custom cable using a 6.3 mm phono plug (for audio use), it can be bought through the webshop. --------- Power Up: MembersPage/MarteleurTim/Powerup ---- OK LCD working and no damage so far as on misconnecting the LCDheader. ---- '''PS2 keyboard''' The JP_PS1 headers is the one in this picture, to the left of the Atmel. Pin 1 is the one furthest from the EC connectors and also farthest up in the picture. Documentation on this is under reconstruction, I can't find the old page anymore. //Mattias ||'''JP_PS1'''||'''Mini DIN6'''||'''Function'''|| ||1||4||Vcc|| ||2||3||Gnd|| ||3||1||Data|| ||4||5||Clock|| [http://www.vems.hu/files/Marteleur%20Tim/PS2header.JPG PS2header] ---- '''SOLDERED THESE COMPONENTS ON V3.3''' 1.
