Installing Raptor dual mode shift light.....VSS question.

[Mr. Bill]

So I have everything wired up but the vehicle speed sensor (VSS). Looking at the wiring diagram it should be pin #27 on connector C2 at the Powertrain Control Module - PCM (this is the computer under the air cleaner assembly on the drivers side near the radiator correct?). This should be a White wire with an Orange stripe. There is not a White wire in this connector.

Anyone done this before?

thanks,
Bill

you wouldnt happen to have the whole ecu pin out do you?

[Mr. Bill]

Not sure if this will work but if it does it starts on page 243.

awesome! thank you, im trying to install a 2step and flat foot shifting sometime this coming week when it comes in!

[PaulP]

install a flat foot shifting ? whats this your installing

[jvm728]

i was thinking about doing both as well! what system are you going with?1?

Sounds like a simple 2-step - wired so that when you have the clutch pushed in, the car behaves one way (usually a preset RPM limiter that you can change) and with the clutch pedal out, it behaves another way (usually standard operation). Set up properly, it would let you keep the gas pedal matted when shifting and instead of hitting the normal 6,000+ RPM rev limiter when you normally do that, the car would revert to a lower RPM rev limiter since the two step would kick in at that point (since the clutch pedal is in). Make sense?

JVM728 i bought the N2MB Racing WOTBOX which has a 2step and flat food shifting

PaulP, basiclly in simple terms to what Steve M said is i can keep my foot on the gas all the way down and when i hit the clutch it will keep it at 6000rpm with the throttle open 100% keeping full boost going into next gear.

nice sounds like a good setup, be perfect for 1/4 mile that I run

I will probably add this to my rig. Let me know what the install is like after you do it sir.

[usmcly]

Will do

[Mr. Bill]

Thanks to Mark at Woodhouse.....I now have the proper pin out diagram for the 2005 Viper.

So just out of curiosity, how hard is the install on the single mode Raptor Light????

[98intrigue]

Ahhh, we were close! Same pin, but different color. Glad you got it figured out.

[Mr. Bill]

Ahhh, we were close! Same pin, but different color. Glad you got it figured out.

the coil wire colors are on C1 different also.

Thank you Mr.Bill, Hopefully the 2006 Pinout is the same as the 2005?

A word of advice.... Find another shift light to use. I had problems with two different units they sold and thier customer service is beyond terrible.

[Mr. Bill]

FYI, All hooked up and works great. I found the customer service prompt but they obviously didn't know that they had the wrong pin out diagram....they do now.

[Mamba003]

Bill just keep an eye on it. Mine went again after a few months.

[Mr. Bill]

Demonstration of the "launch mode" I had the target set at 2000 rpm's with a tolerance zone of +/- 200 rpm's
so no light until I get to 1800 rpm's and then the light stays on until 2200 rpm's. when I rev'ed over that the light flashes to let you know you are to high. Once you release the clutch and start moving it switches over to the shift point setting.

Ok so I got the Raptor Light and was just wondering if it was the same set-up on a Gen 4? I'm looking to set this up this weekend. Also did you use any pre-existing holes to run the wires thru to the PCM or did you create a new one? Help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help PaulP

[PaulP]

No prob, I'm just installing mine too

[Torquemonster06]

Just curious if you are drilling a new hole or using an existing one. I will prob start later this week. Im also going to be painting some other goodies while installing Green LED's.
