    Electronic Bi-Modal Valves

    UPDATE - working perfectly (when using same pins as sketch). Changed signal out D3 to D9, changed switch from D5 to D7 and now works perfectly. Stooge, thanks, you put me on the right track. I’m a novice with Arduino, D3 is also an interrupt pin, pin5 is also a PWM, either the square was...

    Electronic Bi-Modal Valves

    I checked the pull resister on pin 3, it's working correctly, measures 4.5v and drops when button pushed. However, I did not consider the reset on pin 3, it does make some sense that could cause the issue, I will change it and let you know. Thanks for the pointers.

    Electronic Bi-Modal Valves

    Hi Guys, I built the controller with the Nano board, it works great with engine off, ignition on. With engine running, the switch works normally, however the valves change state randomly (even with switch disconnected) every 20s to 4 minutes. Has anyone else had this issue? The mufflers I...

    Which shocks should I get for my VF Redline?

    My 2013 redline sedan, 145000 km. Went King SL with Monroe gas. Amassing difference in body roll. But, SL should be 380mm rear and 375mm front. But ended up with r 355 and f 365 after 2 weeks. 2/3 full tank and empty car. Too low in rear. Told it is because of Bush sag. Have new front strut...

    What is the easy way to refill the auto transmission, SSV VF s1?

    I've read lots on this, I have done 140K km and time to change the fluid, my question is, what is the easy way to get the fluid back in the transmission? I was thinking to pump through a hose connector that screws in to the drain plug then follow the level check, then remove the connector. If...

    Bendix DB2358 for Redline Series 1

    They work great. car stops! Only issue, if wheel weights are inline with the the round bits on the pads they hit. I removed the small wheel weight, wheels are standard 19" redline wheels. No Squeal but use used anti squeal, I found the HD pad squeal more than the ults. The ults definitely have...

    "service steering column lock" message & lose of p/steering while moving

    Hi, I’ve read the older posts on the “service steering column lock” and most are that the car will not start, or similar to my issue but in 2014. I did see there is a recall in the USA for this issue. Mine happens while driving and you lose the power steering while moving. Restart the car at...

    255/30R20 on 10" rims 35mm offset all round

    On a SSV RL series 2 (wagon standard height), has anyone run this set up and if so have photos? Why I hear you ask, I get the concave look in the rims F & R and can rotate the tyres. But I am worried the stretch is too aggressive! Will the rim be outside the guard with the 35mm offset F &...

    Aux power in boot fuse panel

    Is there Aux power that turns on & off with the ignition on the boot fuse panel? I checked the radio (f5) and rear entertainment (f14) fuses and they are constantly 12v with ignition on & off (accessories off as radio was powered off). I am installing a Black Vue dash cam with park mode!

    SSV redline powerpack upgrade options?

    I'm thinking of the 330kW option for my 2013 SSV, I have an auto and I thought the auto was 10kW less than the manual because of the auto capability, does the extra power create any problems, like destroying the transmission?
