Re: VolvoGuy's Jaguar 0.7 build Serial#21

I've done some lockdown wiring. I put the benchtest firmware with the CAS-backwards timing on the Jaguar about a year ago and just got around to spinning up the CAS with a drill to have a look. https://i.ibb.co/b3MJBTg/sync-loss.png I tried it in both directions just to be sure. I checked the firmwa...

Re: Building vanilla firmware

That did what needed doing, thanks. I wiped the Jaguar, removed the SM jumper and checked the CEL wasn't blinking, then wrote my new blank firmware and confirmed with EMStudio that the sensors are sensing. Great stuff.

Re: Building vanilla firmware

I spent a day getting to the point where I could make some firmware. New Ubuntu to wash away all previous efforts. Fred I followed an email of yours that suggested things I probably should have done last time, and did it right first time this time. Grepped another build to see where I needed to add ...

Re: Building vanilla firmware

Thanks for the speedy reply!

1. It's Mint 18.3 over Ubuntu 16.04.1 with the 4.15.0-47-generic x86_64 kernel.
2. I don't mind, I anonymised my directory paths but I thought I'd leave the disposable email unedited and just stop using it if too many bots found it.

Cheers.

Re: VolvoGuy's Jaguar 0.7 build Serial#21

Photos of board progress. I wish I'd just run the wires out of the box and used in-line connectors, these surface mount connectors require a lot of space inside the container, even with the pins trimmed down. I chose them because I want to have the board installed with a fairly quick-release method ...

Building vanilla firmware

Hello Folks I (finally) decided to see if I could build a version of the firmware and get it onto my Jaguar. Is the method described on the Github freeems-vanilla page still the best route? I tried it but got stumped as follows: - I have an up to date version of git on my linux PC. - I cloned the DI...

Grey either looked too washed out or like black at a glance so I fancied it up.

Re: 1968 Volvo Amazon estate, 2.3ltr turbo.

Good to know about the 100mm limit there, I think, like it should be doable. This outrigger's just a fairly simple U-section welded to the underside of the floor to form a box, it spans the floor under the front of the driver's seat from the rail next to the gearbox across to the cill/sill. I cut ou...

That is the business. Thank you. And sorry for the false lead with the diagram. Is this how you mean to have red replacing wherever black/blue were?

Re: 1968 Volvo Amazon estate, 2.3ltr turbo.

My exhaust manifold is finally finished, I built it from 42.4mm mild steel internet bits and some square-round transition sections from KL Racing. Spent way too long welding and grinding all of the internal transitions. I had it internally ceramic coated to try to slow down the rust, not particularl...
