    following on from my post asking if anyone had a copy of the wiring addendum for the CS to help me trace my gremlin.....

    im now down to a few things to check but could really do with 5 minutes of someones time if you have the CS workshop CD or wiring.
    if you have can you tell me if pin 9 on the suspension ECU connects directly to the race mode switch or whether it routes via an intermediate relay please.

    it should be pretty clear if you have the wiring schematics and it would be a huge huge help. im having intermittent problems and im just checking everythings continuity at the moment but this connection isnt responding as im expecting.
    this pin on the ecu is the input from the switch but i dont want to jump to the conclusion that ive a break in the connection if it infact doesnt wire directly from switch to ecu but instead feeds a relay or similar enroute. the modena shows a direct path but this isnt a modena so again i cant be sure.

    It isn't the fact we don't want to help you. The wiring information isn't organized like a normal schematic. The section on wiring in the manuals only show drawings of the whole bundle, not from, for example, a single wire from a relay to a bulb. It is a very poorly designed manual from our friends at Ferrari. Try doing a search on 360 manuals and you will find volumes 1 and 2 and someone else posted a link to Section L (I think) Electrical. If you find an actual schematic please post a link.

    jeff,

    thanks. i do understand this and as i have the wiring manual for the coupe which follows the same (rather curious) format am aware of how it works and the reading of it. i wasnt looking for an explanation of wiring schematics or how the whole circuit worked.

    on the coupe the sport switch wires directly to this pin on the ecu, thus the pin output lists the switch as its destination and vice versa, the switch lists the ecu as its destination. nice and simple to follow and no brain strain involved.
    the CS switch obviously links to a transmission tunnel cable join before moving on, so it does add one more step to the process but anyone with the wiring addendum could have looked at the pin on this, looked this up and then seen where this wire ran.
    its a 2 minute job at most to do.

    not to worry, i went over to the dealer and had a look at the CS workshop manual on their system so i am all sorted.

    Glad that you got the question resolved. So of the information you saw at the dealer, did you see a wire by wire schematic? That would imply the information is out there. My hope is that someday we will find a useful schematic on the webb. I guess the alternative is that each one of us is going pick a system, tear apart our cars and do a better documenting the wiring.

    here where im at:

    Connector 2P is for the F1 gearbox on the modena system.

    Pins on 2P connector:

    9P = gearbox f1 (RL Red/Blue)
    s152p - (G Yelow)
    4p = earth (N Black)
    9p = f1 gearbox (LN Blue/black)
    s145p (NB Black/white)
    9p = f1 gearbox (S pink)
    1p = dashboard connector join (GR Yellow/RED)

    Heres my dilemma

    Modena f1 control box (7 wires) also contains the 'Skid' button and 'Auto' button on a Strad you lose these features. I quite like the Auto option as once in a while generally when im just pottering through town and trying to drink a cup of coffee (no cup holders) its nice to have the Auto feature. Should wire this option in seperatly ........ or could I live without it ??????

    Pics below of the F1 module and wiring V the 4 Strad wires for reverse button

    Just need to figure out which Modena wire corresponds to equivalant Strad wire MMMmmmmmmmmm

    My guess ...

    LN wire (blue/black) on pin 4 of 2P is connected to pin 22 of connector 9P (TCU) ... this is the digital input for Reverse on the TCU!

    On the Strad side, just check with an ohmeter (or trace the wires to the button) which wires are shorted when you press the button.
