Hi All, I'm in the middle of breaking my MGF and I've removed the Electrical Power Assisted Steering (EPAS), with a view to fitting it to my 2+2.
I know this has been done before, and I'm happy doing the work, but I could do with the benefit of experience of anyone who has already done the job. My main question is about the Road Speed Input. I know that there are adaptor boxes that generate a steady signal to fool the car that it is moving, but I am sure we can do better than that. I want the speed-related variable assistance to work properly. On the Mk3 Fiesta, there was a sensor fitted between the speedo cable and the gearbox, which generated a signal for the Engine Management System. It seems to be a no-brainer to use one of these for the Road Speed Input, instead of the sensor that is fitted on the Diff on the MG. The only problem I foresee is that the number of pulses per mile generated by the Fiesta sensor will be different to that generated on the MG. If necessary, I can design a simple multiplier circuit to sort that out, but I need to know the pulses per mile in each case. Has anyone been down this route before and have anything to contribute that might make the job easier? Otherwise, I will report back in due course. Thanks, Dave. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
