I have access to wiring diagrams for any vehicle available in North American 1983-present. Sometimes I can cross it over to Rest Of World cars. If you need schematics for anything, feel free to email me. alandaeric at hotmail dot com
The very bottom of my page has all the questions I am trying to figure out and stuck on, above that (and below this) is the answers I have recieved and some more questions that I have yet to put effort into looking for an answer. If you are bored and would like to plug in what I need to know or answer some of the questions I have yet to try, feel welcome.
SHOPING LIST
Have: case, connectors,
This is what I know I need so far, any thing I missed or suggestions appreciated.
GenboardV3.2
1 x TPIC8101DW. Dual-channel acoustic knock sensor interface chip
1 x Stepper driver IC, package: DIP16
9 x FET: FQPF20N06L (FAI) 15A,
1 x wideband conector
1 x DPAK FET for genboard v3.2 (for cooling fan relay if possible)
MY PROJECT
Ford 347 stroker
- Using ford 36-1 crank trigger wheel
- Using ford cam sensor (hall effect)
- Using LS1 ignition coils
- This is what I know so far: 4 wires, 12v , ground, ground to the ecu and then the trigger wire. I have done some various measurements on a running vehicle. Trigger is by a 4 volt signal (I didnt think to check the trigger time but the scale was set to 1 second and it was just a vertical blip) that does not change at all with rpm. I suspect it is extremely low amp. I have measured dwell, it sits around 59 degrees at all engine speeds and loads. Duty cycle was at about 95%, stayed constant. Pulse width changed dramatically but if I understand it correctly, that is due to the engine speed increase that is decreasing the amount of time each coil has between firing.
- Use the same driver as the original IGBT is driven from, just solder a jumper wire in place of the IGBT, between the 2 pins closest to the EC36 connector, and use ign_out=70 in your config /Emil
- Standard GM map sensor
- Standard GM ect sensor
- Standard GM air temp sensor
- Not sure which idle stepper motor, whatever the 1000cfm throttle body comes with (GM mostlikely)
- Bosch WB 02, unless someone tells me the NTK one can be easily substituted.
- knock sensor, assume any will work??
WISH LIST
- I would like to be able to control the engine fans and electric waterpump through a relay.
- I would like to have a configureable speedo output. (not for my project)
- Drive by Wire, need some serious help with that one.
"Use the same driver as the original IGBT is driven from, just solder a jumper wire in place of the IGBT, between the 2 pins closest to the EC36 connector"
Thanks for that answer Emil, although now I really feel stupid, I am no electronics genius but I am smart enough that I should have thought of that.
QUESTIONS
1.Where can I learn more about my_make configuring.
"and use ign_out=70 in your config /Emil"
I want to understand why I do this, I assume that it just means "allow all 8 IGBT circuits to work" but I have searched the wiki and cant seem to find anything descriptive.
Are you looking to learn about my_make or config.txt? config.txt contains all of your tables and running settings, and my_make contains settings regarding hardware (enabling LCD, keyboard, WBO2, etc). If you are looking to learn about config.txt, look into the file called global.h, or read through MembersPage/Jimw/Config
A lot of settings are also described in the manual.
ign_out=70 means use dummy ignition as your method for ignition. Other settings are 0x00 for EDIS ignition and 0xFF for disable ignition output.
2.Being lazy on this one, 36-1 ford crank triggerwheel, am I right in thinking it is a VR sensor?
If you are asking if the 36-1 Ford crank trigger wheel is used in conjunction with a VR sensor, then the answer is yes, but any toothed crank or cam trigger wheel also uses a VR sensor to "pick up" the teeth on the wheel.
Thanks in advance
