Re: AA80E 8-speed

Lance, I've been thinking about what you said about the PT6 pin designation as part of a group. This may be a problem, but perhaps also an opportunity. I do recall reading something about that in the HSC12 book, though the specifics are a little unclear. I should be able to review tomorrow and will ...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

Here is GM's entry into the field: http://www.chevrolet.com/performance/transmissions/8l90e-lt4.html It costs $5K but that includes the controller and harness. I have that much in the AA80E so far and it doesn't work yet. If spring comes around and it still doesn't work I will look at my finances an...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

Thank you John. It is gratifying to find anyone who is considering the use of this transmission, as I often feel like the Lone Ranger here. I know there has been some use in Europe and Africa but it doesn't seem to have caught on here. My hopes that someone (anyone?) who knew what they were doing wo...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

Making progress slowly, but I now have two versions of the software and two copies in a "test" folder, all 4 of which now open error free. Probably something I could have gotten by without doing but I'm a little paranoid about making mistakes and wanted to start without the IDE telling me ...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

I seem to recall reading something about pin designations where they were all the same, or alternating in/out and something else. I'll have to go back and look at that again. Plus look at how they are arranged here in the MShift in regards to my proposed changes. Should have a comment or question af...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

Thanks Lance, this is going to take me awhile. Right now I'm still trying to learn how to deal with the path designations. I know you said most of the errors on startup could be ignored and I can see why that would be the case but I'd like to feel at least a little competent in knowing what they mea...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

The main problem I've had with this so far seems to be a matter of not getting either the correct, or a complete download of the files needed to load the project properly as near as I can tell. For instance, initially the project I tried to open did not have the ports_pins.h file, I have no idea why...

Re: AA80E 8-speed

Just a simple question today. Is the CPU a MC9S12C64MFA16 or a MC9S12C64MFA25?
I've not been able to find anything on the B&G page that tells.
