Well finally got it sorted, swapped all the wiring around and the fecking thing wouldn't run, well it did run very poorly, popping and banging. I pissed about trying to get it to work and it made me 3/4 hrs late for work :x but luckily the supervizor was on D/O and the manager was out at a meeting so i got off scott free ! :D

Sent an email to Emerald for some help and they sent me a soft ware update which did the trick.

....mmmm.....i seem to be missing some thing :)

Seems to be advisable to future proof the setups as I go, can be added retrospectivly to all existing MS V3.0 ECU's too, so bonus there :cool:

If I could get numbers for an MS group buy, and get confirmed orede with deposits, we could all save a few Ԛ£Ã”šÃ‚£.

Morat, the only parts left are the coil +'ive feed, the coolant temp wiring and thats about it, the rest of the motronic is still in place, but all dormant, this way the engine bay looms stays stock to look @ :twisted:


is mine just software disabled or is it missing the required hardware to run ws?

you need two more VB921 coil drivers , duplicate the circuit from the D14 as you have now, x2 and then enable spark output B and C in the settings menu on MT G man.

Hi, ant,

Question: if i decide to use the EDIS module can I use the std 60-2 and VR sensor with coil pack?

And put my name down for the megasquirt group thingy, defo in!
