The sensor isnt on the ecu as such, but on a separate unit where the canbus line goes!

Also scotty, no need to scare the guy, it is just a wire after all, its not going to turn the car into a giant ball of strange matter, consuming the universe, undoing the fabric of time & space! Can easily be reversed if necessary!

I will actually post that stuff now (the other night my internet droped out, got distracted & then cbf)! For what ever use it my be, might even post for all stags while im at it! *Its not brain surgery!

Its just a network connection that controls every aspect of the car, including airbags, abs, engine, gearbox, attessa. I love modifying cars but I draw the line at that and driving the electronic throttle manually. If theres a fault detected it could immediately go into limp mode and drop all power, worst case full throttle? In a cable throttle car you have control and can always shut the air off, not ours.

If you really must get rid of the speed limiter, for a few hundred more you can get a reflashed ecu from Japan.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
