Link G4+ PnP Mitsubishi Evo 9 - E throttle

[Edmund T]

Hi all,

I would like to install a Bosch e throttle body (0 280 750 474) and Bosch pedal sensor (0280755051) .  I have a Link G4+ Pnp 5.6.8.3671, Ecu type G4+ Xtreme top board (v1.4) and main board V1.2 for a Mitsubishi Evo 9. Ecu version also states that there is a 'internal e throttle enabled. 

My question, do I need the e-throttle module for this application? https://linkecu.com/link-ecu-e-throttle-module/

I have the XSL loom for the additional AN Volt/AUX inputs that is required for both pedal and throttle. 

 

Thanks in advance

Can you confirm the bottom board revision number, V1.2 is an old G4 board so that doesnt sound right.  

Version number should be printed where I have marked below (hidden by hose in this pic):

Hi Adam, My bad, the bottom board revision number is V 1.4

Ok, this is quite an old board from about 2014.  V1.4 didnt have the E-throttle outputs available to the end user.  Only V1.7 and later I believe had the E-throttle inputs and outputs added to one of the expansion connectors.  So this board cant do E-throttle directly as is.

So 3 options:

1. External E-throttle module.  This would require also shuffling a few of the existing wires around to free up one of the aux 1-4 pins for one of the E-throttle module control signals.  In round numbers, current cost for the module is about NZD$400.
2. Return the ECU to NZ to have some flying leads soldered to the board and a small modification to the power circuit to make Aux 9/10 available for direct E-throttle use.  Current cost for this mod is about NZD150 + shipping back and forward.
3. Return the ECU to NZ to have the bottom board swapped for the latest version.  This will give you aux 9/10 on the expansion connector for direct E-throttle use.  Cost for this is about NZD300 + shipping.

Adam,  Many thanks for confirming this.  I will be in contact with the sales/support team then to ship the ecu back. 

Thanks!
