Someone may be able to help me out with this,

Im running a r34gtt with a r33 rb26 and pfc fitted,When i connect the water temp out on the pfc pin(28) to the r34 dash,I have problems starting,any one have experience of this, or know if the sensors are different on the rb26 and the neo?Will the pfc accept the signal from the r34 sensor if they are different?

asking a lot here but once again ,thanks in advance.

this is from memory so bear with me.

Pretty sure pin 56 is the ecu water temp pin (from the dual wire sensor) and 28 is auto control???, the dash sensor is a separate one wire sensor, usually blue with black trace. Trace the color back from the sensor just to be sure. (both sensors are located next to each other)

chcek on the hand controller

turn the car to ON, but don't start it

on the hand controller

ETC

SENSOR SW CHECK

look at WTRT

if its name is black and bold highlighted the sensor is toast, out of range, not connected, damaged or mangled

replace the sensor, check the wiring, check how it's connected, look for a short, or something else is wrong

if its working the sensor name will appear like the others and it will have a voltage next to it

it should be around 1 ish volts with the key ON but engine not running, ie im guessing water temp would be around 30deg ish ?

if WTRT is highlighted in black bold the engine check light will also be on

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
