Terminator Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 what happens if you use lanch conrol on an auto ECUed car? i have one here that just dies when it reaches the hard cut level. cheers.The system needs a signal from a clutch switch, which is lacking on the auto. Power breaking does the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's full throttle gear shift that uses the clutch switch, launch control doesn't. Mine isn't wired into the clutch switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power breaking does the job. it's a bit of an oddball situation. the car was an auto, has had a manual transplant, it has a mines ecu that has auto stickers on it and it doesn't like launch control. otherwise the car drives really well. im not sure if the ecu still retains any auto functions or if mines have removed/disabled them, or even if it is an auto ecu at all.

SimonB Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Have you got the application to have a look at the cut table settings? There is a separate soft and hard rev limiter cut table (separate from the normal traction cut tables). Maybe your soft cut is cutting everything or something?

eyefi Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 yeah, all the settings look fine and the TC works fine, it's just the launch control. i'm really suprised that no-one has tried it on an auto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
