* Perhaps one of the analog inputs already show when AC clutch is activated ?

*** => if mot55/pin41 indicates AC, connect to a protected mcp3208 analog input (and configure and document accordingly).
*** => if mot55/pin41 indicates AC (verified 0/12V or 0/5V signal), connect to a protected mcp3208 analog input (and configure and document accordingly).

ECU serial number is : v3/10581

Added:
According to our records aan/10581 does NOT have

'''AC => mot55/pin41 => mcp3208/... analog input connected

ECU serial number is : v3/10581 again given to you on my email as the heading of my email on the 19/5/2017. You obviously DID NOT CHECK hence now accusing me of not having enough order in my requests.

You can connect the AC signal (mot55/pin41) to a protected mcp3208 input

after Analog input verification (see above)

So now that you know what my ECU serial number answer me this simple question rather than wasting time explaining things i do not understand (nor a large majority of electricians who do not deal with VEMS directly): Will you require my ECU to upgrade hardware or can yo do this with external parts and instructions?
Recommended simple $0.02 parts:

* 4k7 or 10kOhm resistor for input that has no internal protection

* 5V1 zener for protection (if the free mcp3208 input has no protection)

* simple wire (0 Ohm) or 270 Ohm suffices if the mcp3208 is known to have protection internally (than 0/12V does not cause damage)

* 1kOhm for verification of analog inputs (270 .. 4k7 .. 10k also suitable, just measured values differ from usual examples so taking notes and some simple calculation needed)

We can give more tailored advice if (as instructed) you write everything you can about YOUR (actual) EC10 pinout in the EC10 section on MembersPage/VasilisP/EvapOutput

* preferrably find the EC10 paper (or a scan/copy) (and any log of changes or install notes during the years)

* also get a 1kOhm and do the Analog input verification to see that you have (still working and verified) analog inputs on known inputs

** list the mcp3208 inputs in use, or just connected

It is you who are supposed to say to your customer: Yes it can be done and i can do it OR you as a customer has to do it, here are the parts. etc. DO you or DO YOU NOT have a service to provide possible upgrades as you implement new things to your product? Do you sell these things only to tuner providers and let them do the job?

Tell us exactly what you can or cannot offer, so that i can know if i will ever bother asking things from you, or simply pay someone who knows how to speak to people.
