Hi there,
First posting here so please bear with me..........
I am currently building a kitcar and wish to use special controller (Folcik Engineering & Design, LLC.) which will allow me to run the aircon/heater system from a VE Commodore using a small touchscreen instead of the factory radio or controls...........
Now, the issue that I have is that I have no idea if the ECU that controls the aircon / heater will function properly if it doesn't have the engine ECU and all of the other smarts that a full factory VE Commodore has in it.......
Does that make sense ??? I hope so. I'm afraid that the control unit (I assume there is a separate one) for the aircon/heater won't function unless it sees all the right signals from the rest of the system and was hoping that there was someone here who might have the proper knowledge to help us in our quest to get this system working outside of the VE Commodore........
