Foxbody clutch switch

Post by bgjohnson »

I've been reading on this and I want to ask here as well.

MS3 3.0 board

How do I hook the clutch switch in for launch control?

Are you using the MS3X or not? The MS3X has a pin marked as launch in.

I am not, just MS3 without any extras.

How hard would it be to upgrade to ms3x?

The MS3X is a "screwdriver" upgrade - no soldering required. It would be easier than modifying an MS3 base version to have a launch control input.

Gotcha.

After reading, it would be much easier. I plan to expand further anyways with additional pressure sensors and monitoring sensors. Which I wouldn't have enough spare pins in my DB37 for.
