Not enough

not to mention pics (figured I'd pat my own back) in the autostick thread just down from here in the same forum

http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=33&topic_id=2215&mesg_id=2215&page=&topic_page=10

here is your write up to accompany my pics

1. Unplug Battery Terminal
2. take off plastic along sides of center console (as shown in pics)
3. un mount TCU from bracket (4 bolts in a steel cradle)
4. pull TCU out onto the floor (as seen in pictures)
5. undue harness screw (screw keeps the harness on the TCU)
6. pull off harness
7. drill plastic for pins 44 and 5 to expose orange/red rubber insulator inside the harness. every 10th pin is labeled (or 5th i dont remember) so use your common sense and count the number they are offset (ex if 40 is marked count 4 pins towards pin 45)
8. insert new pins (Part#101028 Thanks Keith) into holes and run 2 momentary switches to a common ground switch, and ground that to the chassis.
10. put it all back together and reconnect the battery


Usage: engage the common ground switch to enable autostick, push the button grounded on pin 5 to gear up and push the button on pin 44 to gear down...

Note: the car may have to be in a autostick ready gear such as '2' or 'L' for this to work, if it will at all... if these instructions dont work tehn it may require a TCU reflash as alain95 said...

well infint3 said he spliced into the ECU not the TCU. I also read that one of other members here that tried it hooked it up to the TCU and it didnt work, which makes me think it IS the ECU we are supposed to hook into.

I read all the threads with their eleventy billion posts and I thought it was time to start fresh.

Infinite and I talked about it for a while last night, so Im gonna try to get it done his way and take pix to add to his walkthrough.

I didnt ask this because Im a lazy n00b, but because I want a solid walkthrough up for EVERYBODY that is conmplete, easy to understand, and full of pictures

EDIT: are you saying you did the mod and it works your way? Or are you saying you gathered up all the info and thats how it should work? Ive also read that we might need to do it at the ECU because on avengers they have the #5 wire going from the ECU to the TCU since some of their cars have autosticks?


Either way I want someone who HAS DONE IT to get some pix of it done, which is what I was trying to do.

I did it EXACTLY like Brent said, to the TCU. Didn't work, FOR ME. Now thats not to say it doesn't work but it is possible that some TCU's may need to be reflashed. I personally cant contemplate why this would have to be wired to the ECU, it just wouldn't make sense to store shift data in the engine computer, but then again Mitsu. has done weirder things.

brent are you saying that worked on your car?

Im lookin for someone who has it done to tell me, infinti3s way doent work at all so tomorrow I start workin with the TCU instead of the ECU

update:

Ive now tried this mod both ways and neither works. Is this like the biggest 2gnt hoax in a long time or is some one who got it to work gonna give a working tutorial?


And yes, I read the other 2 threads concerning this mod thats how I know of the 2 ways to do it.
