Default DO NOT CHANGE VVT OUTPUT

DO NOT

UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE

CHANGE THE OUTPUT FOR THE VVT FROM "High Current Out 1"

TO ANYTHING ELSE


I just spent the last two hours diagnosing and unbricking my ECU, I had to reset the firmware and the tune because for whatever reason, after changing this to PWM 3 just mucking about, the ECU went haywire and started firing every output at the same time with about a half-second interval.

You have been warned.

This was on an MSPNP Pro

Or don't go changing outputs ***** nilly without paying attention to output conflicts. It has nothing to do with VVT.

Well yeah, derp, but to someone that's trying to figure out what's going on with their setup and why VVT might not be working and is curious to trying different things to see if that would help, messing around with that one setting WILL brick your ECU and you'll have to jump through hoops to fix it.

Just trying to be helpful and provide a cautionary tale about changing things around.
