That is good to know, I figured that might be the case. I first did programming with the central dash still taken apart, and I could watch the LEDs as the unit was responding to commands.

Thanks again, socalva, for taking the time to make this available.

Hi, are any more of these available? I'm definitely interested.

And to pitch a somewhat dumb question that I think I know the answer of - does the auto-dsc disable ("track mode") have any effect on ABS functionality?

Cheers!

That's right, it does not interfere with ABS. MiniMania did a pretty good job explaining DSC here: https://new.minimania.com/DSC___ASC_...d_de-mystified

I still have some available, I'll PM you. Thanks!

I received my “module” today, however it seems that all I was going to receive was a bundle of cardboard and packing peanuts.

Wonderful.

Unless theres a damn good explanation for this, I’d suggest that other people avoid this scam.

Replied...

Edit: Refund received, but the package still didn't contain anything besides some fluff.

I re-designed the circuit board to be slimmer and easier to install. It should clear the plastic bridge now

That's nice because it is a tight install.


To follow up, I've been using mine for a couple months now and it is great.

+1 on the amazing job - great workmanship. Socalva used my R53 as a Beta platform and the board has been working flawlessly since it's installation six+ months ago. I especially like the DSC cancel-upon-startup feature (re-enables easily).

PM "socalva" on this forum. Not sure if he's still making these or not.
