Title: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: smithabusa on October 17, 2008, 06:41:11 PM
Big thanks to Petrik for all his work on this, he sure has made this easy.  I started reading up on this a few days ago and ordered a couple of cables and the switches needed, and added a little bit of boostbysmith wiring LOL

I am really going to miss DaveO for this stuff, he sure knew it well.

Petrik,

Wow this stuff is cool....got home today and tried what you said and within 5 minutes I had gauge data working, and flashed me ECU for the first time, 11,200 RPM limiter with no 6th gear restriction (comes on at about 11,600 RPM) actual....How Cool :)

Here are a couple of pics of the cable and switch etc I put it in a box and added a couple of LEDs

Red comes on with power

Green LED means gauge data mode selected

Blue LED means flashing mode selected :)

I have it so i can remove the box from the bike by just unplugging the 6 pin molex connector I put on there.

I am geeked, gotta get the shift light programmed from the flapper solenoid and get the kill box going for air shifter :)

Greg

Cool. Good work. If you start doing these for customers maybe put a little DaveO sticker on them to keep his legacy alive. Your always coming up with new stuff or making things better. Now can you show me how to get 200hp for 5 dollars :lol:

Good idea, I was thinking if I sell these a portion of each sale should go to the DaveO fund as well.  I just bought the parts and followed the directions PetriK posted, just tried to make it nice and clean, figured others who are scared to wire might like it, would take like 5 minutes to install the pins into the ECU connector on the bike.

no you just take the left side ecu connector off the ecu, push the white lock to unlock the pins, and insert 4 pins into empty slots, t tap or solder onto 1 wire, and hook the ground wire.  On mine i made it so that stuff stays on the bike with a 3 inch harness and a 6 pin connector, so the programming box stays off the bike.

Good question LOL

They dont cost much to build one yourself, i was thinking if i was going to sell them in the $180 shipped with shift light range and $25 if that will go to the DaveO memorial fund.

yes it can,you cam change fuel,ignition,change rev limitors,remove the speed limiter,unify cyls,operate a shift light or nitrous solenoid,even have a kill operated by the factory ecu.THis stuff has been around for a little while.Petrik has put some information out there for us to see and use.

DaveO was gonna reflash and tune my ride the week he got back from Maxton
So I spent 200 on the hardware thru bikeland.info,  and I bought a used laptop running XP cause it is the most tested with this stuff

I was gonna offer reflashing since there was a HUGE hole left when dave passed. While I was getting my stuff together to reflash , Busa2001 offered to reflash and donate the proceeds to Dave's family......I forgot about offering it, Cause I suddenly felt like a dick, Busa2001 is a better man then me,

So smithabusa can handle your reflashing needs
Busa2001 can also
as can I             

three options
it is up to you

Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: smithabusa on October 18, 2008, 08:30:20 AM
and to be honest guys I am brand new to this.

My intention wasn't to start re-flashing, but rather to build the setup so its as plug and play as it can be so you can flash them yourself :)

Have not been much involved here on bike talk - but one comment to this...  This stuff can not be owned by anyone after DaveO - the information is there free for everyone to use, as it has always been. It was a choise to work with daveo on busa reflashing stuff because of his skills and passion for tuning, for those two qualities there can not be a replacement.

If any of you choose to go for the commercial route now as also all the information is becoming more public, please do the same as wayne (b2001), greg (smith...) or mike (wrth...) has promised (in addition to marlin (RR) thats counts to four already ?) - I just wish from the bottom of my heart that all you guys let Josh and Jake know your appreciation through your actions now and in the future. I also hope that the buyers of this kind of services will ask for this same commitment to appreciation towards the family of someone who gave so much and asked for so little.

Thats enough said - hope it was .... not too much ... too soon ...

my offer was for anyone that was in contact with Dave that never got their ECU flash, to donate the entire cost to the family fun then send me the ECU to be flash to their specification, they would pay shipping both ways. i don't and won't go beyond that point. i do this as a hobby for my own personal satisfaction.
what i want to see is everyone being able to do this for them self, Petrik,myself, stocker, and a few other's will be able to provide tech support for the new guys just getting started, one of the neat feature of ECU EDITOR is the MAP SHARE where when you share your maps it increase your user level. we hope to have enough people flashing that this data base will have a maps for practically any setup...like Petrik i have no commercial interest in this.  :thumb:  don't want anyone to take my earlier statement the wrong way..i know what Dave put into this stuff and don't want us to forget about his hard work... :thumb:

Thanks to him, Petrik, and some of you other guys an OF, thats old fart, like me who is somewhat technology challenged I should be able to do this. Thanks DaveO and the rest of you that make all of this possible.  Fred

id like to start offering turbo kits for the street and utilize this instead of secondary fuel injection and all that other stuff. This is the only way Ill do street kits and all the maps would be available to all the tuners that use this. There are a few things that need to be addressed in the ecu for me to be able to use this completely.

so my bike can be reflashed and i can get rid of the powercommander?
if so who around me can do this (dyno session and tune)?  middle tennessee area.
i dont mind traveling either...

we are trying to get every one who wants to do this up to speed, it's relatively easy using Petrik's ECU EDITOR romraider is a lot more complex and easier to make mistakes and the definition files are no longer updated or supported, but with some patient and practice you be ok, I'm fairly sure that Soon their will be a tuner close by for you to have it done. in the mean time if you want to learn how to flash it for yourself get the necessary hardware and we'll get you going...any questions you have just ask. :thumb: once you get started you won't believe how easy it is... :lol:

not yet, i still need to get the ecu pins, i had some here for my bike but they are already installed, Seb has some i am going to get off him.  I am also working on a printed circuit board for this so no jumper wires inside etc.

Now if you put it into a frydaddy along side the french fries, well, it would have to be alot bigger.  (it's a time + temp thing) I should have specified what temp that grease would be :rfl:

Am I right in thinking you're going to use a 3pdt on-off-mom switch on that PCB?  :?

If so, or not, what is it and where can I get one!  :D

Also, what PCB designer are you using. I've seen a few open source ones that will work on my Linux box at home and am thinking of using them, but I'm not sure about it yet. Don't want to shoot myself in the foot before I even start.  :lol:
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: smithabusa on October 21, 2008, 09:30:27 PM
its a 4pdt toggle switch, on-off-on

Mouser has them for $9, check out the mod section Petrik has all parts needed, i am just trying to make it a little more plug and play for those who dont like to solder LOL

www.pcb123.com is the program, works pretty nice, ordered them today should get them on friday.

Assuming these work i have no problem selling the printed circuit board if you still want to do it yourself etc.

Post by: oberon on October 21, 2008, 10:03:06 PM
Thanks, I want to buy a fully assembled one from you.

I was wondering if I could incorporate both switches. That would give me less places to leak... :hm:

I haven't been into electronics for over 20 years, (In Information Technology now) and I'm having to relearn.  :duh: :duh: :duh:

I'm thinking of casting the PCB into non conductive, dampening resin with a structural plate on two sides.

Cast that into a rubber case and happy, happy, joy, joy!

The case will be made in two castings to allow voids for the switch movement. Not repairable if it craps out but, it should be tough as hell.

The more I think about this, the longer I think it will take! Crap!   :crzy:

Still sounds like fun though...

In the drawing there is a momentary switch in addition to the dpdt. (reset) Is that right?
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: smithabusa on October 22, 2008, 08:47:21 AM
On one end is where the wires from usb cable come in, and the 4pdt switch

In the middle are leds

On the other end is just a 6 pin molex connector pc mount

Then you wire the 6 wire harness and plug it in, if that makes sense

You dont need reset - turning bike power off and back on is the same effect. I generally prefer the reset not being installed in case some accidentially presses reset button in a middle of dynoing process. In the picture there is two other switches which in usb design is combined into one on-off-on switch.

Luckily things have moved rapidly forward from those early days. The design from smithabusa looks very neat and is propably also very durable for harsh conditions. As it even has a connector for taking it off the bike dont know if any rubber molding is needed.

Btw this is the initial design published for max232 someone in finland initially found on a japanise web site when we were learning about sh7052 flashing:
(http://macmadigan.no-ip.com/Public/ECU/FDTinterface/max232converter.jpg)
Based on that I then made first succesfull reflash of an ecu almost an year ago and published this graph on programming interface.
(http://macmadigan.no-ip.com/Public/ECU/FDTinterface/hayabusa_ecu_programmer.jpg)
Anyhow we disregarded that one because it does not support engine data and replaced. E.g. the VCC line on that picture has since generated a lot of problems as we dont want to use it for USB device.

This is what renesas i.e. the ecu processor manufacturer originally has published. Took a good few evenings to find this on their web site. This had the rst on it, but after implementing one soon come to realize that its really never needed.

Just think what will be available another year from now

My thoughts on this would be leave the short harness on the bike, and only put the box on when u need to retune

Don't know about you guys but real estate is always an issue

I'm a fan of just repining the yosh box connector... not going to be used with a yosh box again, and keeps the wiring harness as stock as possible.

are you doing gauge data or just reflashing?

Post by: PetriK on October 22, 2008, 11:59:11 AM
Yoshbox is gonna be difficult for most of the users with all the rewiring including cutting one wire for gaugedata. I really prefer the smithabusas plain and simple (plug and play) solution for anyone who does not enjoy playing with a soldering iron. For us more technically minded some preinformation - when the boost pressure sensor, boost & nitrous solenoid control and some other ecu updates come avail (hopefully) the using the yoshbox is not necessarily going to work for you anymore. (Well of course one can always go and cut more wires and rewire the stuff but it may get complicated.)

Post by: YAG on October 22, 2008, 01:09:58 PM
I don't need gauge data, just reflashing... wouldn't be hard to add gauge data to the yosh connector.

If it comes to the point that more is needed then going another connection route would be fine, but for now swapping a couple ecu pins and plugging into a stock connector is fine.

Post by: PetriK on October 22, 2008, 01:47:20 PM

Yes, its everyones personal choise. Without gauge data you loose the ability to check that the vacuum sensor is working, the ambient temperature sensor is good, the gear position sensor is ok, checking some of the error codes, etc. Gauge data is also in practise needed for a dyno.

One can always try to make a shortcut - but at the end its cheaper and easier to use the smithabusa method. A couple of persons here have tried the rewiring the yoshbox and it both ended up into a lot of support calls until they decided to cut the wires. One of the reasons I did not publish this information erlier into wider use was that I was not capable of taking a lot of phonecalls about making the diy interfaces work. Now with smithabusas work we can take this to the next level and minimize support needs. (And let me also announce that I dont have any kind of commercial arrangement betweeen Greg and myself, I am just very pleased for Greg donating some money to DaveOs fund for each cable he sells.)

Oh - that rememinds me that with the amount of users from USA we really need to start to give a choise of using fahrenheits too on the gaugedata.

But like said - everyone chooses his/her way with this kind of open source stuff. The instructions are there for anyone to build what ever kind of interfaces one wants to with some skills and dedication...

Plug and play, it took me under 5 minutes to install it and re-flash the ECU for it to come on at 10,800 RPM, limiter at 11,500 actual I think, man thats a long way to rev LOL

I unplugged the flapper valve, and got power and the input for the LED right there using 2 male spade connectors, works perfect, and cheap too!

Damn that skipping 2nd gear, trans is coming out very very soon  :twisted:

I went the yosh connector route also for my personal bike and like you say it is nice to have gauge and program ability through the single stock connector.  I just had to run one new wire to the connector for the ground (Pin 54).  There are enough left after that for the remaining programming and gauge data connections.

The colors on my plug didn't match the diagram though so I would agree, that wouldn't be the practical method for someone not comfortable with wiring, but will be nice and quick to connect the bike to without removing even the seat.

Starts to look very nice here...

If anyone is serious about reflashing the stuff in a dyno, then please do not use the connector. You really need the cable to be connected so that you also get the engine data back to screen while dynoing.

For one off flashing this with a connector is very convenient, but the its just for raising the limiters.

Propably Greg will sell always with both options or have the 34pin as an extra option.

Closest is propably a 0.6bar euro map. You need to use comparemap feature and use original us map as a base map. You can get in touch with the owner from the map sharing forum - if not found there, then hint me and lets try to find one for you. But the map sharing is built in there just to ask for maps and share own maps.

  We need more details to know who's map would get you close. However, if you are running an engine similar to mine I can share a 7lb map to get you started. I am not done with mine but, my bike is good enough to ride and get to the dyno.

   My map is with S2000's and would be totally different. If you have the time take a look at the Ecu editor fuel tables. You will see that it is fairly straight forward. One easy way is add fuel in the same places the power commander did for rpm and Throttle then work the map out with datalog and testing. I generally make changes in percentages such as adding or subtracting 1, 2, or 3 percent from the ECU editor fuel map.

If you are using a PC3, 3R, or 3USB, there has been talk of using the percent changes in the PC and changing the internal maps by the same percentage. Should at least provide a good starting point.

Particularly with Data Logger the engine data monitoring full cable is highly recommended. That helps to e.g. calibrate the TPS and VACUUM signals so that you know which cell you are tuning with e.g. innovate generated afr maps. On the road I have done most of my cruising area tuning with datalogging with DL-32, but sometimes having had a laptop on top of the fuel tank and just to see which map cell is highlighted gives a so much of information and makes the tuning process easier. That has been great fun to stick the laptop on fuel tank, some others have taken a passenger operating the laptop on the rear seat - so maybe this could even be called a social hobby ;-)

But everyone has personal preferences on most things like this, and some even may still opt using e.g. Yoshbox as a tuning device as they have one, so you just do what suits your equipment best.

Greg, dont be too modest. The information has been out there for 6-9mths but only you were the first to start building these units in a batches and even to organise a distribution through www.schnitzracing.com. All of that took about 2 weeks to get sorted. So its a major contribution to an open project like this. Also I hope that DaveO:s family will be helped out by this a bit like we discussed.

I am really looking forward more info on shift light and the air shifter integration with the ecu. When all of this is put in use then its time to look more on the boost control duty solenoid activation. Also someone may want to start produce plug and play nitrous relays for dry nitrous setups which are so easy with this...

For sure I can handle plug and play relays no problem there

I have spoke with the owens family and am keeping with the 25 dollar donatuon per unit sold, sending the first check on monday :)

Shift light is already available with purchase of the unit on my site, matt is working on air shifter harness, we are on our way :)

So Greg. Let me make sure I understand correctly. If I were to use this on a dyno, I need another connector? Not sure I am following it right.

Hope you dont mind me asnwering in gregs behalf.

You can use Gregs interface on a dyno. You just may want to order some extra harness connector parts for yourself and retain one unit for tuning - or alternatevily sell one unit with full harness for each bike.

Lol I can't take much credit for this petrik has out in the open what's needed, I just made a circuit board for it and put some leds on and stuck it in a box, but the response so far has been overwhelming to say the least, I have been very busy at night working on these.  No problem at all man, did you get the new fueling setup yet?

I have the motor out right now getting it freshened up for next season. I had some metal in the pan so I took it all the way down. As far as the fueling goes I had to put that on the back burner for now. I had to get a crank and possibly another Falicon Rod. I'm still waiting to see though. I will get on the secondaries after Christmas. I still have my NOS bike to play with. That thing never say die  :lol:

Okay I brought my ridgeracer reflashing stuff to Rick at HMP a couple of weeks ago

he has been messing with it for a while

he called me Saturday, he has been able to erase the factory flash but he says when it goes to load the new flash, it gives him a error(don't rememeber the error off the top of my head)

Anyone ever run into this before?
I will call him back later and get more info

Cold be a problem with the COM port selection. Make sure the com port in the fdt software is setup to the one being used on the computer.

check out the ECU hack boards for more information:

Igoing from memory I think it is some comp port error
but if it can erase the old flash... shouldn't it be the correct comport?
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: conrad on November 03, 2008, 08:10:30 AM
There isn't an "erase" function, either it allows him to flash the new image or not.

Like sportbikeryder said, he will need to go back in to fdt software and configure it to use whatever the new port is that the computer has assigned to the USB converter.  He can find the port in device manager if he's not sure.
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: PetriK on November 03, 2008, 08:21:05 AM
First thing is to check that the com port is in com1-4 range. Easiest way is just by using ECUeditor engine data monitoring screen to set the port correct one, it lists only compatible devices so you are likely to see only one port and the correct port on the list. If the usb cable is full programming cable with engine data monitoring it is also recommended to test the communicatons using engine data monitoring screen and e.g. move throttle and see how TPS value should change between 1.2%-100%. If the engine data does not syncronize then turn bike power off and back on and rechek.

There are two other areas that may relate to this:
1)  One of the locals discovered a bug in FDT which prevented .bin files to be
flashed - or actually it flashed zeros. Since the ECUeditor has been changed to output .mot format and this problem was solved.
2) If there has not been a proper reset of the ecu before flashing then there may occur communication errors during flashing.

Two additional things not seen as often, but possible are: too low battery voltage and other programs on the computer eating up the needed processor power.

Without a proper log and further info on setup its difficult to say anything on this particular case.

After a failed rflashing procedure just put the bike power off and back on e.g. using the red switch near throttle. That resets the ecu and you can re-flash. Btw. The latest Hayabusa ECUeditor version should also warn if your com port is not set and tested properly with engine data monitoring before using FDT.

Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: Nosgsx1300 on November 03, 2008, 08:29:19 AM
one problem is Rick is old school and has no internet on either of the two computers he is trying on
so he is not using ecu editor
he is using both romraider and engunuity

I copied the ecu editor off the link you gave me that "should" work without net acess
and it installs but gives a error when you go to open it for the first time casue it is looking for the internet

I will call him in a few minutes and see if ha has made any progress
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: PetriK on November 03, 2008, 08:43:16 AM
Sorry that could not help you with this one.  We tried to do the same (enginuity and fdt) in the dyno, but it could not stand the heat from the dyno owner about reflashing being difficult to (this was march time this year). Luckily he was very straight forward with me back then, so now the tools are much improved including the engine data monitoring. After summer he has been using ecueditor as a benchmark and giving feedback about other software he is using not being optimal for dynoing ;-).

Really should find a solution for off line dyno stations too - but that and map sharing ?

   I have just got that error today when I was trying to use a different usb to ttl converter. I believe that you either have the wrong driver or need to download a driver for you usb interface.  In a nutshell your computer is unable to use the usb so it says can't open port.

Four steps should do it for software installation with full cable

1) We had some problems getting all this running until we updated windows to latest patch level from here,
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com so if the computer is usually off line it is good practise to first update the windows to latest version.

2) Usually when you first time connect the cable Windows installs the driver, dont necessarily need the ftdi drivers unless a very old windows version. So just plug in the cable and it gets automatically set up - anyway with older installations Virtual com port drivers linked above by Mark is needed.

3) When you download http://busaecu.redirectme.net the installation of ecueditor and possibly .net 2.0 will happen. All the components are installed over internet

4) Download and install Renesas FDT. This is needed for flashing and installing it is most complex of all the components.

OK, I think I need this setup!!!  I'd love to be able to raise my rev limiter myself, as well as lose the PCIII USB from my bike.  :thumb:  I have a couple of questions though...

My ECU was originally modified by DaveO for an extended rev limit (where he used to cut a hole in the ECU and change something physically).  Is that going to affect me changing the rev limit by reflashing the ECU?

Secondly, my bike is a 100% track bike with a slider clutch and flat slick.  Dyno sessions aren't really an option, and I use an Innovate LM-1 for AFR data logging and change my power commander maps based on those logs.  Will it be easy enough to come up with a safe baseline map to start with, then alter based on LM-1 log files?  Also, I'm getting the impression that the ECU editor software has to have an internet connection?  Does that mean I won't be able to make map changes/adjustments at the drag strip (since I won't have net access)?

Greg, any chance of you hooking me up with a "custom" harness" a little longer than the ones you're selling?  My ECU is not in the stock location, and one with a little longer harness would work better since I could access it without removing the whole tailsection from the bike.
Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: sportbikeryder on November 06, 2008, 11:24:04 AM
Georce,
     You only need an internet connection to install the ECU editor software adn share maps. You can use the software offline. If you have a power commander map, you could modify the factory ECU map by the percentage fuel change you have in your power commander. This currently needs to be done manually. If the current cell in teh ECU has 180 in it, and you have +10 in your power commander, you would have to put in 198 (180 * 1.10).
This should get you close. You would still have to tweak to get it right.

Can anyone say for sure about having to un-do the crystal mod for raising the rev limiter?  I'm thinking if so, I'd have to find a replacement ECU since I don't know of anyone/any way to un-do it.  :?

I'm sorry I don't 100 percent understand the question.  Efect which data?  Dash data that ecu editor can view?

The only noticable thing I have seen is that when viewing dash data on the laptop while plugged into the bike, your coolant gauge doesn't read, but you can see it on the laptop screen.

Title: Re: Flashed my first ECU today (pics inside)
Post by: Patterson on December 05, 2008, 11:52:21 AM
Starts to look very nice here...

If anyone is serious about reflashing the stuff in a dyno, then please do not use the connector. You really need the cable to be connected so that you also get the engine data back to screen while dynoing.

For one off flashing this with a connector is very convenient, but the its just for raising the limiters.

Propably Greg will sell always with both options or have the 34pin as an extra option.

this is what i saw. but i belive he is talking about doing it off the bike. my bad. nevermind all my post.

My pleasure to be part of this :)

Desktop harness working out good then?  Playing around or any real tuning?

Im just playing around. I really dont have a clue on the real tuning. And the bike is not running, we are in the process of getting the motor out, and building one for an attempt at the record next year. Oh yeah the harness is great. Fred

I have an ECU from DaveO ;-), donated by his family.

Its just the harness that is needed to hook it up with the bike emulator. I believe that any Gixxer K7/8 would do for this purpose.

Not buy'n Greg, no not me!

 :wink: At least not yet...

I just got my new toy and am busy doing mods to it. I'm done with the following: integrated led tail light, db windshield, kickstand mod, ECU programer harness :D. Got Heli bars on the way and should have a Tobin seat on it next month.

Meanwhile, I've got to get the hoses replaced,(Yeah, I know, expect an order from me soon  :lol:)  fork seals done, get a brembo front master cylinder, hh pads and speigler lines, bla bla bla.


So, you see, I've got a money pit already and don't need a new one yet!  :D

Hey guys, sorry I have just looked threw this thread again, but tell me what all you need for the 08-09 Busa?

PetriK, Ridge, smithabusa----- I have complete wiring hardness, ECU, and throttle bodies, that I will donate to you to get this going, LMK!!!! All I ask is you return everything back to me, and hook me up with everything needed for modding and such

Hi, Thanks for the offer - but none of the project stuff can be offered to be sent back. We cut the harness wires, open the ecus and take the stps out of the tbs - so its all or nothing really.

A second ecu would be helpful which I could open completely but already have an ecu that Lauren sent (originally DaveOs). Today bought a complete K8 gauge set from ebay and also a complete engine with a harness so I hope that I have all the bits and pieces now to take this to the next level.

The only missing piece I dont have is the Suzuki SDS tool box itself. That is needed for this project too.
