The Template can be downloaded here: (2.2MB)

If anyone has any valuable input, please feel free to give me suggestions to improve it.

I'm providing this "As is"
I am not an electronic engineer, so if your house catches fire/ECU melts down as a result of attempting this guide, I won't be held responsible.  Grin

Regards,
Daniel.

Omg you did a great job! I need to do this!
What program did you use to make the template? I would like to make one for my ecu.

I used umm.. Corel Photo Paint X3, Its more or less the same as Adobe Photo Shop, but the difference is I can actually use the software. Me and Adobe PS don't get on.. I can't figure half of it out, Corel Photo Paint is like second nature to me, I think to myself "there must be a setting for that there" click on something and a menu appears, tada.. setting Smiley 

Its been layed out on a A4 sheet and done with the dimensions of the connector blocks. So when printed off it *should* be the right dimensions.

If you can get me a picture of the connectors I can have a shot at making one for you. Is it a 1, 2 or 4 plug one?

Cheers,
Daniel.

One plug. This is what the plug looks like with pin numbers:

I'll have a look tomorrow.. its going to be a bit of a nightmare doing that one.. might have to split it up into 4 sections, but I'll see what I can come up with.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Wow, nice work mate!

So, bear with me... I'm tired.  This is essentially to tune/work on the ECU outside of the car?

That would be correct I believe.

Yes, this is so I can sit on my comfy chair with a cup of coffee and can "create" symptoms to see how the ECU reacts and the code inside changes. (generating knock, temperature increase etc.)

It will also allow you to real time check any addresses to see if they work, rather than having to go outside with laptop and check them every time.

You don't really *need* all this what I've done, you only require power to the things I mentioned in the guide, as well as the SSM plug. you could leave the rest of the wires dangling and get away with using only 8 out of 64 on mine to make it talk to the pc without anything else.

However if your interested in messing around to see how the code reacts to certain variables, this is for you!

Here's an attempt at the 1 plug template, thanks for re-creating the connector in PS , saved me erasing all those little numbers (96 of them!)

I've chosen to number them in this manner as on the long 28 sections you end up with a gap of 2, i suppose if you really wanted it I could turn the 28 section into 12 and 16 as opposed to the current 14 and 14. Anyhow, numbering like this means that the bottom end continues at the top of the next stack of connectors.

Linky: (they seem to be getting bigger and bigger.. I need to check the software settings.. its 3.3MB now.)

Any suggestions welcome, I still have the basic template with all the layers so its not too hard to change.

Cheers,
Daniel.
