|
|
Does anyone know of a resistance / temp chart for the Temp Sensor 2 of the 2.1L engine?
I'm familiar with the chart that is in the Bentley but I'm looking for something more specific like manufacturer chart.
The Meyle part number is: 100 800 9050 (Blue temp sensor). |

Why is Meyle junk? It's uber German. |

Does this help?
If you read up on the Steinhart–Hart equation, the data above can be converted to an equation but you have to be able to solve 3 equations and 3 unknowns. A lookup table also works fine. _________________ _________________

I've managed to get this table from one of the emails you sent me. This is the Synchro temp sensor, right? but the resistance / temp values are just like the blue sensor?
We are currently working on figuring out what the ICU uses the temp for. Looks like at certain temp it closes the ICV (when engine warmed up enough).

If you compare them to the chart in the Bentley they look to be correct - doesn't matter which type (Syncro or not)
I can't say what the ICU is doing but I suspect it is adjusting the ISV to adjust Idle RPM at certain temperatures. On the closed loop control in the supercharged engines using Digifant1, the idle RPM setpoint varies with temperature. See below:
At -13 degC Idle setpoint is 1087 RPM
At 18 degC the idle setpoint is 940 RPM
Fully warmed up it is set to 811 RPM
Also note that with the sensor disconnected (Open) it sets the RPM to 1050 RPM _________________ _________________

Where are these tables (info) from?

From the chip used in the G60 Supercharged engine that uses onboard closed loop idle control. It is a later varient that uses the same ECU circuit boards but more components are populated - the ECU controls the ISV. _________________ _________________

just to be persnickity, the ICV never closes but uses a pulsed 12v to achieve the desired dwell time of the piston. with the idle speed screw properly set, meaning the ICV current is at 830ma, the engine will die when the ICV is closed or disconnected. that desired 830ma is an averaged current of the off/on state of the ICV.
i know you know this given your development of the board but it may be confusing to others. _________________ -dan

You mean 430ma? |

YES! 430, not 830ma. and i had just looked in the ProTraining too to confirm 430. brain told fingers to type 830. _________________ -dan

A little more information regarding the ISV. It has an emergency function in case it fails.
In the G60 world some people would wrongly adjust the stop so no air bypass would occur. This defeats the emergency function so the engine will probably not idle and die if the ISV fails.
Note: info from SSP_103 (Self Study Program No. 103) _________________ _________________

I'm not seeing this in the vanagon valve. Are they the same? |

Maybe they aren't the same. The stop adjustment may have been added later??? I like the idea of the engine not stalling if the ISV fails. _________________ _________________

Sorry to break your heart, but Meyle is not uber German anymore since probably 30 years. They trick people by writting Meyle Germany on their boxes, while in fact, only the HQ are in Germany. Everything they get made is 90% garbage and often from China with poor QC and junk materials.
Avoid as much as possible.
I think Bosch dropped the ball on that sensor, that was the original brand, made in Germany until they moved production elesewhere or ceased it entirely. _________________ Silicone Steering Boots and 930 Cv boots for sale in the classifieds.

With the ISV completely closed or disconnected I see idle of roughly 700RPM. It's low but the engine is still running.
At idle the valve is open about 20-25% and you obviously know that you set basic idle with the valve connected. |
