Nice, I'll give it a try if I can figure out how to do it. This is how the Idle Control looks in the current version of TS with MS2/Extra v3.3.1:



The lowest I can set is 31 Hz - would that be the equivalent of a x1 multiplier?

OK so if I understand correctly, the new firmware (3.3.1) doesnt really do anything different from the old firmware (3.2.5), they just changed the terms and gave you frequencies up to 480hz which is the equivalent of a 16x multiplier? So using ~300hz you have about a 10x multiplier and have lost resolution. If 156hz the valve works at 2% steps then it works at 4% steps a 300hz, correct?

Rev, is this why you put in the expansion board or is that spec'd out individually on your MS2/Extra builds?

Hector, the inversion is required as when you add the expension board it inverts the output. This change can simply be done in the software.

I'm not sure what other versions of MS have what hardware.
I am running a DIYPNP2.

Originally I started with Firmware 3.2.1 and then moved over to 3.2.5 (can anyone say it is worth while going over to 3.3.1?)

Did setting your mspnp2 to pwm closed loop fix your high idle issue? I have the same issue with my mspnp2. I'm running firmware 3.3.0. As soon as my car starts it idles at 2k + even with the idle screw all the way closed.

Im not sure who you are referring to but the OP resolved the issue in post #30 in this thread. It was a "phantom" fix. Also, he has a DIYPNP and not MSPNP2. They are MS2 based but not exactly alike.

BTW, DIYAutotune has fantastic support.

Im experiencing the exact same problem with the same settings as above. I tried disconnecting the iac, but shoud it return to closed by itself? It revs to about 3k all the time with or without the iac connected.
