I didn't get any with mine ( bought it used) so I don't know which connectors they used. I was just going to use butt connectors, crimp the hell out of them, and then cover them in electrical tape. You think that would be ok?
Thx again for all your help,
Jonny

Are they just regular male/female connectors for 18g wire?
Jonny
Sure, those'll work.
Put them on according to that picture on the first page.
That way, if you ever want to take off the SAFC, the airflow wire can be connected right back up.

Who here uses an S-AFC?
Guys,
I need someone to check their S-AFC settings for me so I can get mine tuned. VScSC400 has been helping me but he doesn't have access to his car right now.
Does anyone else have one they are using on their SC that could tell me one of the settings?
Please let me know,
Thx,
Jonny

Johnny. If you have the whole thing wired up I think the next step is to take it to a dyno shop and have them help you with the remainder of the settings. I don't think would charge you. You've been trying to wire this thing up for weeks now and I'm concerned that you may short something out.
page 37 step 3 of the manual says
throttle sensor type setting
(arrow pointing from left bottom to right top) during closed throttle 0v-1v
(arrow pointing from left bottom to right top) during open throttle 3v-5v
(arrow pointing from right top to left bottom ) during closed throttle 3v-5v
(arrow pointing from right top to left bottom ) during open throttle 0v-1v
** if there is no thorttle signal
lastly
be sure to set the throttle sensor type AFTER performing the (4)-d ((sensor voltage check)) for open and closed throttle voltage.

I just wanted to be 100% with the wiring before I installed it as I didn't want to mess anything up. It is now installed fine now I have all the colors. It is on the car right now, but I had to leave it at stock settings until I find out these settings I need.
Is the voltage check something that is done with the S-AFC or do I need to do that somehow myself?
Thx man,
Jonny

Johnny I'm going to ask you to read the manual again carefully. It tells you exactly how to read the voltage off the S-AFC. For me to tell you would be just copying the text out of the S-AFC manual.

Dennis,
OK - now I see it. Sorry, I don't have the manual and it is hard to read it off the computer. I didn't want to have to print out 50+ pages but now I see that is the easier way.
I am understanding now about the voltage check.
thank you,
Jonny

Who uses S-AFC?
Guys,
Was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I am having with the S-AFC. For some reason it won't let me go into Karmann which is the sensor type I need for my car. It will let me access everything else except for it and it is driving me mad
Anyone have any ideas?? I can't get it tuned until I get it sorted out.
