Title: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 05, 2013, 07:02:38 PM Is there anyway to patch in this option to these ecus all ive really read is it causes problems blown fuses and coildriver. Just seeing if anyone had any success with different ways
Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: adam- on September 06, 2013, 12:14:48 AM Pretty sure I've read that the older ECU uses a different ignition driver, which can't stand FTMON (dwell time) going to zero, hence it blowing a fuse (if you're lucky), or melting a coil.
Saying that, the first time I tried it on mine (AUM, so should be the newer driver), it blew a fuse. Never tried it since mind. Used antilag/launch control todo, some quiet pops and it took off like a rocket. Only problem is, if you do the anti-lag stationary, it makes deafening bangs, and shoots 4ft flames out the back. So much so, the first time I did it, there were armed response out and a helicopter above where I did it. Title: Re: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 06, 2013, 01:37:12 AM Ive had success with it on newer ecus. That is what I also heard but I remember reading somewhere that you can set FTMON to 0.02 or 0.2 cant remember which exactly and it will keep it from blowing I was hoping thats someone with more experience could give me a certain answer on it
Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: hammersword on September 06, 2013, 02:06:07 AM I always set FTOMN to 0.2s and never had any issue with coil
once I did it 0 and after 15days the coil blow Title: Re: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 06, 2013, 02:35:40 AM Have you ever ran it on the earlier ecus?
Title: Re: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 06, 2013, 02:20:19 PM So ive read through the 032hn implementation of launch control thread again and what seems to be the general understanding is that the older coil driver doesnt like FTMON set at 0 which causes it to see a invalid signal which ends it blown fuses coils or driver. So if like hammersword says u change it to 0.2 would that in theory make it work without issue on the older ecu's?
Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: adam- on September 06, 2013, 03:58:02 PM Tried to dick with this today, it won't let me set it to 0.2..
Can set it to 0, and 1, but no decimal.. Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: ddillenger on September 06, 2013, 04:08:09 PM Are you trying to enter decimal values into raw hex?
Sure sounds like it. Title: Re: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 06, 2013, 04:09:38 PM I can set it to 0.2 is ur map configured correctly?
Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: adam- on September 08, 2013, 12:42:59 PM I'm probably being a total retard here, buuuttt..
Type in 0.2, and it auto changes back to 0. Put in anything higher than .5 and it'll go to 1.. Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: madswp on September 08, 2013, 12:58:57 PM right click on FTMON in tunerpro. click 'edit xdf parametre' and set 'decimal places' to 2, then it should work
Title: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: Rick on September 08, 2013, 02:44:05 PM You can't do it with FTMON on the early ECU.
Title: Re: Re: Pre 2001 launch control/nls Post by: bangarang1.8t on September 08, 2013, 02:56:39 PM Is there anyway to do it

Assumed there would be an option though! I'm using WinOLS, but the concept will be the same, I'd've thought. Thanks though! :) My brand new TSI coils are now no longer brand new, and missing under WOT. Emailed the company to ask if they've take them back because they don't work.. ::) |
