2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
2003 2nd gen Dodge Neon
2.0 SOHC SXT
http://rusefi.com/wiki/index.php?title=Vehicle:Dodge_Neon_2003
Here's the new test mule!
101K miles & manual. Got an amazing deal because "the car has a few dents, all from being hit with a baseball or softball, and the most noticeable dent over the right rear was from turning to soon and catching the garage pole while parking".
The ECU is not where is should be but whatever.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon
different tone wheel than mine, but shared with the SRT and other 03+ chryslers this diagram may or maynot be offset by 40 degrees but it should be easy to verify with the actual car.

Wow, google does not know 05087006AA! I will now say "05087006AA" here - and in a couple days google would show only this forum for 05087006AA...

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon
My connector donor has arrived. So far I am only applying mechanical forces, already pulled two pins while pulling the pieces of the PCB. Will try my favorite grinder but I am afraid to damage the pins even more. Damn silicone.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon
Working on gathering all the data needed to run the car. I have to stay it was pretty impressive how fast the car has thrown P0508 code once I've decided to start it without idle valve. Damn, I need to look into these smart chips with feedback.
Damn, I really want to work on this 60 hours a week

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon
Idle Air Contol has only two wires (see schematic in first post of this thread)
I have 1.3 Ohm between "Idle return" wire pin C2:28 and C1:9 "ground" or C1:18 "ground"
and the 2nd wire is "IAC motor".
What does that mean? Is it still low-side controlled? Is it high-side?

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon
1.3 ohms between idle return and GND is probably a low side sense resistors. Such that if you have say 1 amp running through the solenoid, you'll get 1.3 volts across that low side resistor. This would allow the ECU to PID the current flowing in the solenoid. For the initial attempts on this I would suggest
First measure the resistance on the solenoid. How many ohms does it measure.
Then I would suggest measuring the current during idle on the OEM.
Then for starters on frankenso, wire pin 38 IAC motor to 12V, then wire pin 28 IAC return to a low side drive. You can then set the PWM to match a similar average current as the OEM. This will get the basic starting point.

This is with pre-warm-up as usual First thing I want to figure out would be cold start.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
AWESOME!
More fuel should be all it need when cold but I assume you've tried that already (possibly times 1.5 the pulse width you had in that video as a starting point) ?

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
The idle motor resistance is 10 Ohm precisely, I have to say I am amazed by Chrysler once again - it was really easy to remove the idle valve.
So on a bench @300Hz with a diode I see that 0-30% it's pretty much closed, 30%-70% is where most of the movement is, 70%-100% again change in the duty cycle does not move the piston much.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
FINALLY a pre-warming is not needed! The car was sitting overnight, coolant was at about 50F, it was not perfect but it's SO much better then it used to be! I am pretty excited and I need your feedback on how to make this first start smoother
[video][/video]
That's with and global default tables, 10 degrees timing advance, 5ms per cylinder per engine cycle base cranking fuel, 12ms per cylinder per engine cycle flat fuel map while running.
What is this when engine hesitates for the first 10 seconds? I guess coolant gets some time to warm up while the ignition chamber gets warmer much faster. How do I make these first 10 seconds of running better? Extra fuel for 10 seconds of running?

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
That's good progress!
You probably need some after start enrichment but at this point it doesn't really matter as you can just make the VE table richer anyway (We're not quite at fine tuning just yet ). Do you have a wideband O2 sensor on this thing ? I feel like it would help a lot, especially once it's running. Are you able to change the VE table in real time while running ? You could try to lower that pulse width to see if it would run better.
At around 1:10 in the video, is it backfiring in the intake or exhaust ? If it's in the intake, it's most likely too lean, if it's in the exhaust, most likely too rich. That should help to know which direction to take with the cranking pulse width.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
When you cycle the ke to the on position, do you dump a priming pulse long before cranking? Also are you dumping in fuel before you have full sync? The popping noise could be a mild problem, as you might ignite fuel in the exhaust, which would likely causing odd pressures which at low RPM. Is that popping back firing, or exhaust combustion? Backfire is technically out the intake, as that's backwards from normal, while exhaust ignition is more normal. Many people call exhaust ignition a back fire, which isn't really proper. Any how, if it's the intake, your timing might be adjusted to much, and causing igniting before the valve shuts, which would cause the charge that's hanging out in the intake to get spent before it's been loaded for a useful purpose. As well the next couple cycles are likely also sucking in an already spent charge.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
Looks like the radiator fan does not work, wow The relay is fine and power gets all the way to the connector on the fan motor, so it is the motor.
Kind of scary how did the previous owner drive it without the fan. I have no choice but hope for the better - I guess if the head would be warped I would learn this by now. Knock on wood!
Ordered a replacement part, used motor of a turbo Neon Same radiator fan on both turbo and N/A manual car.

From here it appears you can export VRML from KICAD, then with blender you can import and export to .stl
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/kicad-users/conversations/topics/11801
I've not done it, but have access to Solidworks and inventory, so I might be able to offer some other tools if required.

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
For validating PCB shapes, footprints and outline I usually just print them on paper (real size).
If you then want check the case I would just use a plate of plastic the thickness of a PCB (which in most cases is 1.55mm or 63 mils I think) and drill manually..
But if you have a 3D printer.. I am jealous
