Post A'PEXi VAFC Install #2

<font face="verdana" color="#1e90ff"><font color="#000000" size="2">Here are the diagrams you'll need to install and fix the vafc.<br /><br /><img height="438" alt="" hspace="0" src="/diyimages/ecu.jpg" width="848" border="0" /><br /><img alt="" src="/diyimages/apexi_electronics_vafc0012.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br />Parts you'll need: 1 - 2.5amp 1000V diode. </font><a href="http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CT LG%5F010%5F005%5F003%5F003&product%5Fid=276%2D1114 ">Diodes at Radio Shack</a><font color="#000000" size="2"><br /><br />1. First of all make sure you've got the vafc installed the way that apexi had it to begin with. (install it according to the original diagrams.)<br /><br />2. Disconnect the pink wire (vtec solenoid signal output) from the green/yellow wire (vtec solenoid output.<br /><br />3. Crimp (DO NOT SOLDER, it melts the diode) the side of the diode with the printed bar on it to the green/yellow wire.<br /><br />4. Now crimp the other end of the diode to the pink wire so that you've got something that looks like the second diagram that i posted above.<br /><br />5. Close everything up make sure your connections are crimped tight. Here are the settings i'm using:<br /><br />V/T cont: <br />Lo &gt;&gt;&gt; Hi = 4500<br />Hi &gt;&gt;&gt; Lo = 4200<br /><br />Wide Thr: <br />+3@4500rpm<br />+4@5000rpm<br />+5@6000rpm<br /><br />everything works great for me. Here is a video of the vtec engagement. If you listen carefully you can hear vvvrrrrVVVRRRR on the first pass right before i get to the light post (i let off the gas 2 sec after it engaged).<br /></font><a href="http://students.washington.edu/~kwy/video/vafc.mpg">VIDEO</a></font>
