Dave has just given me some very good news

He is giving the community a VIS (Variable Intake System) tester.

It will be available at the nano-meets and other community meets and, if agreeable with the membership, it will be available on loan to individual community members.

I think it will be as useful and successful an asset as the club's VIS tester has been

Only difference of course, is that you don't need to be a subscribed member to use it, as we don't have any subscribed members

Thanks Dave. You're a star

No pressure to build it then

It will be fine Paul, if not i'll send you a bag of bits

A very generous gesture Mr T or Mr S.

As I have now sold my Sykes scan tool I really ought to build one of these, I suppose.

If I ever overcome my inveterate idleness, is there a definitive design for it available?

I have the connectors.

Never thought of a definative design Mr B. I am happy with the performance of the other one doing the rounds, a couple of well placed diodes solved the problem of the led failing. The problem arose when both VIS motors were connected to the tester at the same time and one of the VIS motors had failed in a certain position, it sent a current through the led the wrong way, anyway that has been eliminated now. If you arn't bothered about the ECU (Engine Control Unit) signal light they really are very easy, will see if i can find time to do a write up.

Meanwhile:





This one is done and will be on it's way to it's new home at Raistlins for all on here to use

There is/was a circuit diagram somewhere, which is what I'm looking for really. Have you got a link?
I can't quite make out the wiring in the photo.

You have a PM

Just a note also to Dave to say a public thank you for fixing my VIS tester for me F.O.C. Dave your a true gent

No problem at all lewis, the loom plugs you supplied are on the end of the community tester and some of the VIS bits you donated are in the post to help a member out as we speak

I can't find one, Mr T or Mr S.

A real community effort

Thanks to all for their efforts and contributions towards this....I am sure it will be in high demand.
