traction control

[astra vxr]

can anybody recommend me a rotory switch/pot for traction control

many thanks

anybody ??

Any 10 position rotary switch will be ok (of course you need to add resistor network for this).

You can also use potentiometer (eg. 10K linear).

thank you kuba
one more thing off the list

Hi,

in last week i do some shopping to improve my control over EMU functions and i buy :
- 10K linear resistor ( TP SL45V-B10K L-10B/SPV-17/DC , 5TNK1-B1-B2M10-B10K-DC-20H )

- 10k rotary resistor witch switch off ( RV17S-B10K-15KQ )

- 4 position rotary switch for MUX switch ( SRN-2-4-20KQ , SRN25B, R-2-4W 20KQ , RS003-2-4-W-20KQ )


+ some resistors : 0.5W 4K7 1%, 1W 2K2 5%, 1W 10K 5%

Probem with potentiometers is that they do not have a fixed position and easy is to make a unwanted change..
I'm using grayhil mil spec rotary pot with resistor network all covered with mil spec adhesive and heatshrink.. i think is £60 ready to install including knob.

Agree, better have fixed positions.
I`ve just ordered Nikkai MRX108 non-shorting 8-pos rotary switch. Much cheaper option, but have to arrange resistors yourself.

same for me i want to go the fixed position its a safer option for me and the car

just need to work out the resistor setup now but im not going to go full 10 i think 5 will be enough for me

also ive just been looking at software and the torq reduction only goes to 2k is this a problem or just the way it is if thats the case its not going to be no good for me to use even in 4th gear it will spin even at 4k + even factory cars go over 2k on there traction control ???

I just ordered an AEM trim pot. I think it has fixed positions, but I'll let you know when it arrives. It's about $26 US, with fancy labels etc...

This is delta rpm not rpm!!

need to put software on bigger screen laptop

I got my 10 position switch from Maplins, its a bit cheap and plasticy but worked ok on the bike. Had to remove it as traction control is banned in the classes i run.
