I didn't know that. Thanks Charlie. I hope to see you and Tamera next year at EVCON II.

Thanks Kyle, If you will look at my later videos on the BMW X5 conversion you will see how I am spoofing the reluctor signal using an arduino that will convert a 2 pulse signal into a 60-2 pulse signal that the ECU (or DME in BMW speak) will recognize. I have been able to turn on the DME and make the car think that the motor is running. The program starts with a signal equivalent to the idle speed. As the 2 pulse signal increases from zero so does the 60-2 signal.The tach responds accordingly

i know this project may now be finished however if you put the reluctor ring on the shaft of the motor you will only get a signal whilst driving, this may not be ideal for car parks, i would recommend (whilst you may have already solved this issue and assuming the ECU is still installed you could use an oscillator and amplifier (usually used in a radio circuit for the first stage IF 450hz) and hard wire this into the pick up

(ensuring the amplifier has a zena diode in place to knock the voltage down to the correct levels) this would trick the vehivle into thinking it was at idle however this may interfere with the tacho if you intended to use the computer to give that out put

The larger shunt is for my amp meter. The smaller shunt is for the amp meter in the Xpert Pro. It comes with the kit.

I was going to suggest PIC microcontroller or Arduino (Atmel AVR) to generate the timing signals, but it looks like you have it all figured out.

I see you found a work able solution to the run signal. Congratulations. I saw in a later video that the "hairball" has a tachometer signal output, and it occurred to me that may be the solution, especially when you were adjusting the settings and there was min and max settings for the tachometer, which you said was unnecessary as you weren't going to have a tachometer. I thought - hey, why not have the tachometer output send signal to the computers so they will activate. That would give a constant run signal (theoretically), and adjust with speed. And if the important sensor is crank based, you will have the right count! If cam trigger, then halve the speed settings of the tachometer to get the right speed. And a direct battery feed for the sensor to the steering is inadvisable, as many sensors run at lower voltages, and you may end up damaging the computer with too much voltage. Not a expert, but, something for consideration.

That big shunt is 50 micro ohms. I wonder how they measure that.

Shunt for ammeter ? Hasn't the X-pert Pro have an ammeter built in ?
