hi i just joined today,my name is david i live on bribie island qld,i am very impressed with the forum.
I have found more info on the 6a12 today than in the past 2 months.
i have always had mitsubishi cars starting with a lc lancer hatch brand new,that should give you the idear that i am probably quite a bit older than most of you.Also had quite a few cordia turbos,a zr4 galant,a gto tt,other non mitsi 2 gt4 st185 2 jc cosmo 20btt
basically love all cars.my present cars 2 hj galants both 6a12 1 with twin turbo motor.
i am struggling to get info on these cars,that is how i stumbled on to this site.
my problem with the turbo car is when i run the correct ecu for the car the check engine light comes on after 2 or 3 minutes and stays on till car is turned off,when i bought the car it had a fto ecu running it,it ran ok with a few misses ect,so the standard hj galant and the fto ecu seem to be interchangable probably the non mivec.
today i tried to read the fault code from the ecu but no matter what i did it would not work. short pin 1 to ground and count short/long codes fault codes are the same as well
fto and galant hj.
i think when the conversion was done some of the wiring was modified and the diagonostics plug must not be connected correctly.
i am looking for the pin out of the fto ecu?
i should have tried to read the codes from the na galant to see if i could get that to work
maybe tomorrow.
that is enough ramblings for my first post.
