Mega Joltz building
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi Guys, right going to start building my ECU tonight (a friend was going to do it but he didn't get time) is there any tips you can give me before i begin.....
Been looking thought pages of wiring layouts and found that there is a Rev counter out put on the MJ v3... any one tried using this for there rev counter or are you all working of the Edis??

Thanks
Alex.

made an oops, put the 5volt zener diode where the 12v zenner diode should be........ not put the 12v in any were yet am i better buying a new 5v one or should it be hardey enough to transport to the correct possion?

Thanks
Alex

THey arn't the most robust components - I would personally fit a new one.

Its alright, i poped down to maplin and got a replacement. its all built!! yay. Not sure it will work... but..... we will see..

Just got to get a pipe sorted for the map. Thanks

Were have people got the 4mm pipe from???? i can find 3mm and 5mm ID pipe but no 4mm which seems to be the size for the map sensor.

Thanks
Alex.

I used a bit of pipe designed for windscreen washer jets.

Dredging up an old thread...Sorry. What gauge wire did you guys use to attach to the pins in the connector?

Hi,
I've not built one, but as it's only low current stuff, the EDIS does the work, 1mm2 should be fine
Cheers,

Ok, thanks. The pins in the plug are quite small. I figured it would be some lightweight stuff. I just wasnt sure HOW thin...

Hi,
With most of it being 5v or less you could probably get away with a piece of damp string

I've used quite a hefty feed to the EDIS mind to try and combat the voltage drop when cranking.
