3.57 Documentation correction, question

Post by ChevelleFan »

In the MS2/3.57 Hardware manual, http://www.msextra.com/doc/pdf/MS2V357_Hardware-3.4.pdf there are lots of references throughout the ignition section to "build the circuit in 5.3.0.3" -- except that there is no section 5.3.0.3. I think they mean 5.3.1.3 ??

Also, I want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly.. In 5.3.1.4, there's a table showing Spark A/B/C being available on PAD 1/3/2. "The PAD1,2,3 connections should be jumpered to an output pin of choice (e.g. SPR3) and can drive many logic coils." -- so if jumper PAD1--> SPR3 PAD3 --> SPR4, then I can directly hookup the SPR3/SPR4wires on my DB37 to the VAG 032 905 106B wasted spark logic coil? (shown on page 83)

Thanks,

-Dave

The led pads will drive the vag 4 tower coil without an issue.
