Hi guys, in another thread here i asked for information on how to use a zener diode in the turbo pressure sensor line to remove the boost cut.
I have a 3.3v zener diode and another diode of about .8v (couldnt get a 3.9-4.3v one). I told a friend (tv/stereo repair guy) what i was after and he came up with combining the 2.
The thing i dont get is:
How do i wire this into the tps wire? Im pretty sure it doesnt just go in line (series) between the TPS and the ecu, as in know it has to somehow dump unwanted voltage to ground...
Do i just strip a small section of the + TPS output by the ecu (but dont cut it), solder the right end of the zener diode in here, and he other end of the diode to a ground?
Thanks for any help guys - Gene
