EV2 to EV5 are On/Off solenoids. That's fine as they simply select the shift track. The control arm moves without any resistance here and so there...
I'll give you a hint and leave you guessing: I bought myself a "poor-man's" F430 F1.
Thanks, Alex! Yes, I implemented the stack in the original hardware. It was a bit tricky to not mess up the internal timing, but meanwhile it...
Good point! The "-" indicates an interrupted communication between TCU and display. That is, the display does not receive valid data from the TCU.
Check out post #43 https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/posts/147079085/. A flashing gear display indicates a mis-alignment of the control arm. As...
For sure. First of all, the CAN bus is directly wired to the engine ECU. There are no other ECUs connected (the gear display in the dash uses a...
Not sure which kind of parameters are you looking for. Can you please specify?
Thanks a lot! Sure, pins 13 (+) and 32 (-). Not sure about the wire colours though.
Part 15 of Hacking the F1 TCU Having my own F355 was marvelous! I loved the car - and so did my employees. It quickly became the most desired car...
Part 14b of Hacking the F1 TCU Next I prepared my F355 for testing. My aim was that I could take my laptop, get into the car and take...
Sure, I will gladly do it next time! Yes, I also spent a lot of time thinking how I could improve the CPU. I like your idea a lot, Trevor! In my...
Part 14a of Hacking the F1 TCU Meanwhile my project reached a stage where I had to take measurements in a car. Last time I went to my client for...
I came across them some time ago when I had issues with a hydraulic block. I didn't think of my project back then. Thanks for the link, I will...
Please keep in mind that I'm doing business when reversing the TCU. I'm getting payed for everything you find in this blog. Although I had no...
You're right here. The most relaxed shift strategy though is for down shifts due to low speed, e.g. when approaching a red traffic light. I took...
Part 13 of Hacking the F1 TCU Finally reversing the shift process was an important success! For my next milestone, I would now leave theory...
I wish I had this before. Not because of the technical description. But it would've helped me a lot in choosing concise names for the variables in...
My customer and I planned for 24 months. The target was to reduce shift times by 20% or 50 ms. There is an option for further improvements...
Part 12 of Hacking the F1 TCU When I started this project I was aware that there would be little progress in the beginning. And this turned out...
Yes, it is still alive. You will be updated soon, if you like. It is not.
