DME pin that controls the exhaust flap
Does anyone (eventually shiv) knows witch pin of the ECU controls the solenoid valve that opens or close the exhaust flap via the vacuum pipe?
I would control manually the flap so I should intercept this signal to route it to a switch. It is impractical to connect directly to the solenoid wire in the trunk so I find it better to intercept the signal on the ecu connector... |

Many thanks RiXst3r
I will intercept this wire, route to a 3 position switch: open, closed, DME controlled, but when in open position I think I will have to put a load on the ECU pin to avoid any code.... BTW is this important? can I live with the flap error code? I am out of warranty now |

Reminds me of the tunable exhaust switch on the older Mitsubishi 3000GTs.
