    ECU Controled Active Areo via custom Pin 48 output

    It occurred to me that this wouldn't be very hard to setup.

    The only difference you would wire it so the dash switch will control power to the relays and the ECU will be the trigger for the relays.

    Chrome mod Custom Pin 48 output gives the user the ability to activate the pin based off coolant temp, RPM and Load. I could very easily add speed as another input condition. In fact, I can take it one step further where you can enable/disable the inputs you want to trigger the pin, then set the min/max conditions. You can eveon have the ability to enable if you want a min and/or a max condition.

    What do you guys think?

    This pin could literally be used for anything. Not just AA. OBD1 purge solenoid operation, Meth injection, nitrous... Hell it can turn on a streaming word LED banner that says, "eat my shorts" if you want.

    Would you be able to give this same option to other pins? Eg the vent solenoid (35) pin? I like being able to enable or disable the triggers. That'd give the most flexibility and be ideal.

    Pin 35 is being switched from a custom output to just an oil pressure based trigger.

    There are other switched outputs on the board. Hopefully I will get a chance to find them in the code soon.

    Seriously cool as this just made integrating an active aero wing on non-active aero cars easier.

    Now I just need to finish my APR to active aero conversion.

    The contact connectors might be bad on the rear wing. Its an easy fix.

    AA ECU is faulty, motors are rusty or the contacts on the wing are bad. 3 most common issues.

    I get that right now, but I have no motor plugged into the front dam.
