Now i will have a little time for upgrade the car.
I want to use a stock Audi Bosch Idle air valve,2 pin,cigerette style.
How to wire it?
- Stock idle air valve is pwm style. Connect other pin to +12V, other to free injector channel.
- Choose PWM/Stepper from idle settings, choose PWM type and correct idle solenoid channel under Iac hardware setup
- In idle control PWM reference table, fill in values 60 down to 30 linearly decreasing, these need some tuning but something to start
- try to check other idle setting from [this msq]
idle air solenoid - wired
I "manually" opened it with 12V, it cliks, so it's functional! I also measured its impedance: 4.1 ohm.
Pin1 to Ignition Switched +12V
Pin2 to EC36-pin6
I tried to set to PWM as discribed, and i choose INJFET #7.
Configuring for Injector Driver #6 channel. See GenBoard/Manual/DigitalOut and GenBoard/Manual/DigitalOut/Table
- iac_sol_channel=0x70 (injfet 7 in MegaTune; you did this fine)
- EC36-pin6 mask is 0x40/64 as in (Inj G) GenBoard/Manual/DigitalOut/Table
- so set decimal 64 in 7th (starts from 0, so last) index of the inj sequence table, or expressed in tables.txt (as in mct):
- h[0]=xx xx xx xx xx xx xx 40
I can measure 12V between Cylinder Head and "Pin1".
Progress
Ok , i set that h0 so it works now,but only in on/off IAC valve mode,it really pushes the engine from 900>>>to 1500 RPM.
PWM mode
I also tried different PWM freqvencies from 10-255,no luck.
Note,that i have taken special care of engine variables,set everethigh (temps,RPMs i mean) insane high,but with PWM its not working.ANY ideas?
My own answer
The Reference table was set to 1 (all CLTs) so the IAC valve was not able to produce me some RPM increase.
Now this rpoblem is solved,but i need some finetuning hints,and basically i want to understand how this feature works.
I want that with cold engine it starts like a champ,so i set the reference table
-40c to 90%
77c to 85%
i also want that the engine RPM below 40C set to 1200RPM,so
"Idle cold RPM" is 1200
Max temp. for cold idle speed is 40C
With warm engine 920RPM will do the job nicely
"Idle RPM warm engine" 920RPM
Min temp for warm RPM is 70C
What is
idle afterstart? now set to duration 15s
added value 150RPM
IAC actuator speed? now set to 50
max steps to extend? now set to 255
What i notoced is that tough the warm engine RPM was set to 920 and the engine CLT was above 70C ,and TPS was below 3% the engine current RPM was 1050, BUT THE IAC STILL SHOWD 6-8%DC.
Too low iac_integral_limit_dec ("iac integral decrease limit") together with PID values especially I value) didn't allow the iac to deviate enough below the reference position (10% for the given temp, if I understand right. Your published config contradicts this: iac_ref_pos[9]=4D which is 30%, not 10%).
Btw, share the relevant part of your config when asking for advice.
Ok,sure i will share my config.The confusing part is caused by the manually closed throttle valve (it was opened too much for IACless operation!),so i had to give more reference position ,from10%>>>>30%,dont worry about it:).Tough the behaviour what i described is not affected by this,and the hints you gave me are very helpfull!
Still want to know what are these for:
idle afterstart? now set to duration 15s
added value 150RPM
IAC actuator speed? now set to 50
max steps to extend? now set to 255
