  1. Starting with the basics; when using Freescan under the 'Engine Data' tab are you seeing values of 0, 1 & 2 for the 'Crank Sensor' parameter when cranking the engine? If you aren't then that suggests an issue with one of the following:

    1. The crank sensor

    2. The wiring between the crank sensor and the ignition module

    3. The ignition module

    4. The wiring between the ignition module and the ECU

    5. The ECU

  2. The sole reason for inputting the mass, width and span of the belt is to enable the device to convert the frequency it has measured into Newtons. This means you can set the belt tension to the manufacturer specified tension value regardless of whether they give it in Hertz or Newtons.

  3. I think there has got to be more to it than that as otherwise they would just use a wire bridge like the other two on the PCB.

    Because the component bridges pin 30 on the relays a simple wire bridge would not work because when one relay is being used to provide the lock or unlock +12 volt pulse the other relay provides the gnd path for the door lock motor and a wire bridge would mean the  +12 volt pulse would be connected to gnd too.

    It has me flummoxed as to what it is.

  4. From some rummaging around on the Wilson Garner website it is their type BH place bolts that have the 7 times more vibration resistance when compared to a cap screw. They give the type AA as having just over 2 1/2 times and the type B as having 4 times; see https://wilsongarner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Place-Bolt-Vibration-Chart-300x149.png

    Maybe their comment about re-use may only apply to the type BH?

    The type B and BH look to be an upgrade over the OE bolts depending on what they would need torquing up to and if the differential carrier can take any increase.
  5. Just because one manufacturer of self locking place bolts says theirs are re-usable does not mean you can apply that characteristic to all of them. It could be an expensive assumption to make considering where they are used.
