Hi all
finally I've made it to create my page in here
Now let's see what my issue is...
It's the second vr2hall converter that I'm receiving and cannot get it to work, I own a Toyota corolla 99 model equipped with ABS of course, so ordered this to make use of the sensors as wheels speed source to feed my link ecu digital input.
Things are like this: I've wired the +5v, GND and signal out to ecu using the /8 from the one side and vr+ and vr- from the other side. Have I done something wrong? Do I need to connect the Reset counter pin to GND?
Results are when and if the converter is working, it's working just fine, with the /8 I needed a little adjustment in the link ecu settings and voila my speed was there. After my first 2-3km driving around, it stopped. So you say I guess wiring issue..but same time once it's working and next moment it's not. Even tried a 2nd sensor, same results, even ordered a 2nd adapter again same results. On the 2nd order received there were 3 triplets of resistors, 470, 2k7 and 4.7 if I remember correctly,so where shall I test/install these?
Two hints: One is if while driving around and no sign of the converter working I touch it with my hands and pushing it, it starts showing speed just fine, this was happening with both the converters.
Second is if I let it "rest" for a while, then the first time spinning the wheel even by hand having the car on a jack, is always successful, BUT not the second one.
Again PLEASE don't start asking me about the wiring, I've tested it with a MAX9926 circuit and working just fine every time, using it two days in a row not a single problem anywhere. I need the VEMS one and ordered it for it's divby steps because my ecu can handle up to 500hz signal and MAX circuit which doesn't offer divby options has already 1000hz at 70kph. If someone can point me how to use only the 4024 part of the VEMS, it's fine for me although the MAX one is a bulk pcb, so I keep on struggling to make the vems one working ok, having it in its connectors-casings!
Ive also tried to set it to the most sensitive mode with the solderblob on the first two points with the >=150mv threshold, no luck too. I can't figure out what more to try, can you please help to get to the bottom of it as it drives me crazy? How is it possible to "squeeze" something by hand and have it working great like this until you leave it? Is ther something wrong with the ground?
Thanks for your time
