The MegaSquirt Project has experienced explosive growth other the years, with hundreds of new MS installations occurring every week - a phenomenal success! MegaSquirt has been successfully used in all aspects of Internal Combustion engine applications including R&D, Industry, Race, and Research. The MS project has transformed itself from a simple R&D project into a full-featured mature engine control system. To reflect this the support structure has also changed to meet the needs of MegaSquirt Users.
Moving forward, the R&D forums for MegaSquirt project are in a read-only mode - no new forum posts are accepted.
However the forums will remain available for view, they still contain a wealth of information on how MegaSquirt works, how it is installed and used. Feel free to search the forums for information, facts, and overview.While the R&D forum traffic has slowed in recent years, this is not at all a reflection of Megasquirt users, which continue to grow year after year. What has changed is that the method of MegaSquirt support today has rapidly moved to Facebook, this is where the vast majority of interaction is happening now. For those not on Facebook the msextra forums is another place for product support. Finally, for product selection assistance, all of the MegaSquirt vendors are there to help you select a system, along with all of the required pieces to make it complete.
A forum for discussing applications and implementations of the MegaShift transmission controller code for the GPIO from B&G. This can control up to 8-speeds and 6 shift solenoids (plus a 16x9 table for controlling a PWM line pressure valve). It has manual and fully automatic modes (16x9 load x speed table), with under and over rev-limit protection, and full data logging of all inputs and outputs (among many other abilities). A TransStim to test your completed board is also available.
very early in the build process there's a MUST line instructing to run a couple jumper wires on the 25x2 header, then cut the pins off the bottom of the header so they don't interfere.
Very late in the process it had me install two jumper wires on the 25x2 headers. It's:
Input 2 (switchB) AD1 GPI2 (jumper at 25x2 header) 6
and
Spare Output1 (SP1) PT7 VB1 (jumper at 25x2 header) 11
Since it instructed me to cut the pins it seems this step is meaningless. Should I pull it out of the case and remove those two wires?
tmoble, we can't find any record of that page being changed in recently (in the last several months at least), so perhaps you had a cached version that you were viewing. There are other versions of the build instructions for things like the 4L80e transmission, etc..
