Dobbi Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Hey Guys i have a problem setting up Aux 5 and 6 on my HC96x. Im using Aux-6 for the VTEC-relay and wired it to low-side-driving. I set up the Aux-6 to active state "Low" and driver typ "Low side" but couldn't get this to work. I rewired the relay to high-side-driving, set up the aux-6 to "high" and "high side" but again couldn't get this to work. In test-mode the ECU is sending batterie-voltage to the Aux-6 pin even everything was set to Low-Side-Driving. The only way to make it work is: wiring the relay to high-side-driving an set up Aux-6 to "low side". Same issue with Aux-5, im using this for a small shift-light-LED. The positiv lead is connected to the VTEC-power-wire, the negative lead goes to aux-5 but also just works if i rewire the LED to high side. The other aux-outputs working as intended.

aerace_fab Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 You shouldn't need a relay with the plug-in ECU for a vtec solenoid, set it to high side as it comes in the originally base calibration. Now if you're trying to activate a light when vtec is active you could do this using a GP output use low side to activate the relay with switch conditions being "vtec = active" or aux 6 status = active.

Adamw Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Aux 5 & 6 have dedicated high side drive hardware fitted on the adapter board for driving the factory vtec sol directly, Aux 5 does the intake runner on some integras. They can only do high side and there is no need for a relay. Active state should be set to low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobbi Posted October 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Thanks for youre reply. I thought the AUX-outputs can only handle 0.5A on high side, thats why i am using a relay for the VTEC. Im going to rewire both. Thanks again.
