Some minor set up issues...

Temperature Calibration

Temperature calibration seems to be reading low. The air sensor is [MSD 2320] with exposed thermistor (100k-50 Ohms), the coolant sensor is a [Land Rover] part. The following points were measured, using a DVM with K-thermocouple:

CoolantAir
TempResistanceTempResistance
-166650
15420

202318203190
212023

8829771480
96203

The air sensor sounds like a common NTC part? So are there scaling issues here?

WBO2 Voltages

Got the hardware completed. The issues seem to be getting it set up as described [here].

I took base settings from the above page, and found that 0x63 was closest to 0V for my board (-0.109V). Then inserted 100 Ohm resistors into the socket and took readings (nerst_dc_voltage=8D):

CircuitTargetVoltage
GND -> Pin 5 (pump)3.964.28
GND -> Pin 1 (nernst)4.414.39
Pin 1 -> Pin 50.450.11

Adjusting nernst_dc_target can change nerst value, but pump is still too high, and difference too small. The linked page states "The product of wbo2_pump_pid_ki and wbo2_pump_pid_ilimit should be around 0x4000" but linked values of 0x20 and 0xFF give 0x1FE0 already? Which is more correct, and how can I use this to increase the pump voltage (assuming nernst_dc_target can reduce nerst voltage indpendently).
