1.6.3 RPM
The Black/White wire (Pin 18) should be connected to a suitable RPM signal. A
suitable signal would be either 0 –12 Volts or 0 – 5 Volts .
A suitable RPM signal can be found using any of the following techniques.
• Wiring diagrams - If you have a wiring diagram of the vehicle find an RPM signal.
• Tachometer – There is usually an RPM signal leading to the back of the
dashboard. (Highly Recommended)
• Coil signal – note, if the car has twin coils the cylinder value in the traction control
menu may need to be changed. e.g. 6 Cylinder engine, twin coils, set cylinders to
3 if RPM is picked up off one coil.
• Diagnostic Connector – Some cars have a diagnostic connector, these will
normally have a RPM signal. e.g. pin1 on BMW Diagnostic Socket.
•
ECU – most cars will have an RPM signal going into the ECU.
Once a suitable RPM signal has been found, follow the procedure below for
connecting the RPM wire to the RPM input of the traction control.
• Strip back the insulation of the RPM wire exposing the cores.
• Tin the cores using the soldering iron and solder.
•
Strip back the insulation of the traction control wire.
• Tin the cores using the soldering iron and solder.
• Solder the traction control Wire to the RPM wire.
• Cover the joint with insulation tape.
The RPM connection can be tested using either a laptop computer or the diagnostic
facility on the traction control. This is explained in Section 7.2 Diagnostic Modes.
