Hi guys,

Hope someone can help out. I bought an SAFC2 recently 2nd hand from on here, but have no instruction to go with it!

I have wired in the SAFC today along with my AEM uego controller guage (good fun soldering all that in neatly!!!

But i am now struggling with setting up the SAFC to a 'base' configuration, whereby meaning the initial setup.

First thing is which sensor type do i select? hot wire/flap/pressure sensor.

Also which other settings do i need to use so i dont blow the engine to smitherines! If i remember a lot is self learned on it?

Any help is much appriciated guys, and rep will duely be given out:homer:

Cheers

Mikey

Yeah it was my laptop, bought it up on my phone and read it fine this time.

ALTHOUGH!!!! here it comes.......

I have been out to perform the intial setup, which had mixed success. I set up the sensor type to pressure and 1in, 1out.
I then set the cylinders to 1 (after setting at 4 and it overfueled and ran like poo!!) little miss read me thinks.
Then once that was all sorted and the car was running ok, i went to set the knock correction, only to find its reading that the car was running at 4k rpm while idling!!! How can i sort this out? have i wired into the wrong rpm signal?

cheers

hi, the unit seemed to have saved data i think, tried to initiate the system so it reset? seems strange.. getting 2 sensor voltages too on the check of 1.5 & 5.1 roughly?

update of possible problem...

ive just been looking at the diagram i used and cross ref with apexi again. looks like i missed out wiring in rpm2 which is next to the rpm1 i wired in. the question here thou, which colour wire on the safc would it be? i have used green for the rpm1, but it doesnt say which colour for rpm2! i hate electrics!!

cheers
