    Re: New Flash Product Development, and Pre-Order interest

    I had a fellow on TD.com do one for me, his user name is signsoflife22. He did a nice job on it. He was just installing a socket for me, no additional holes used.

    Re: New Flash Product Development, and Pre-Order interest

    I know this is the group buy feeler thread about the new MPFlash module, but I wanted to post a few preparation pictures here since not everyone using FB.
    I'll create a new thread we can sticky once we get further along with instructions like Wowzer has done with his software threads.

    But for now, I am in the process of preparing both a SMEC and SBEC for testing the new MPFlash prototype.

    For a SMEC, it needs to be prepped to install the MPFlash as a direct replacement of the factory chip, along with the A15 wire and a Prog wire as outlined on the merkurboys site that was referenced by BoostButton. And flashing will require a wire added to the 60way at position #11 for the bootstrap power.

    Removing the carcenogenic jelly potting compound:




    Need to clear the potting from the back of the chip and at the Zener diode that will need bypassed:



    Also need to clear the locations for the A15 and Prog wire jumpers:





    For SBEC, the factory chip needs to be removed, and the 4 unpopulated pads need to be drilled, then a 32pin socket can be installed. (No changes at the 60way since bootstrap is handled at the diagnostic connector by either the FTDI cable, or the SBEC/SBECII SCI adapter for MPSciLink.)

    Wayne, if I had known you were experimenting with an SBEC I would have gladly sent you a test one.

    I'm practicing doing one for the first time. I bought 2 BoostButton flashable SMEC's from Rob Lloyd when he was doing them.
    I didn't have a flashable SBEC until sort of recently when my brother Dan built me one.

    I think I made it this far without damaging anything, although that one ground pin was a real bugger to get out, and I was worried I was overheating it. Since I had so much trouble though I was probably 'under'-heating it.
    The drilling takes patience, and I was doing it by hand for more control.

    I really need the SBEC to work right the first time, since now I don't have an ecu to run the car if I need to!

    Re: New Flash Product Development, and Pre-Order interest

    Worst case I have at least two unmolested 2.5L T1 SBECs, one is actually supposed to be a van with a... wait for it... A604, the other is for a car with a 5 speed. I currently have the socketed one loose as it was giving me some strange results trying yo use it.

    Re: New Flash Product Development, and Pre-Order interest

    Thanks Joel!
    I'm trying, and I received good advice from some certified electronics geeks!

    My plan from here is to wait to test one of the prototype MPFlash modules, configured for SBEC.
    Once that is successful, then I will coat the ECU board with conformal coating (on both sides where the factory potting was removed), then seal with some electronics potting.
    The MPFlash I think I will just use conformal coating like those SBEC/SBECII SCI adapters got.
    I may use some potting around the entire area to be sure the connections don't see any exposure to the elements.

    For the SMEC, I will wait until I have an MPFlash module configured for it, so I can do some test fitting and measuring. It may be too tight a fit to use a socket on a SMEC. But I want to experiment with it and see what I could do first. It may need to be soldered directly on the ECU like the BoostButton module.

    Yes! You need to so you can practice SMEC tuning! 😉
