Electronics How-To Guides / Re: Ultimate LSX AC Control Tutorial - HalfSpec Engineering
« Last post by halfspec on Today at 03:59:06 PM »David
You're right. With the diagram I drew for Rob containing the erroneous 12V constant on the fan relay coils, I can see how you could get a path through each parallel fan relay coil, through D2, through the compressor relay coil, and through whatever other load on switched 12V that ties back to ground when 12V Switched is switched off. I've never seen an automotive relay contact latch with < 6VDC on it which is what you'd get in this situation because you'd get at least 3 voltage drops on that path + the 0.7v diode voltage drop drop, but even without latching, I believe you're right that a parasitic path would exist.
My apologies for doubting your understanding of the circuit
For anyone else here reading, the takeaway it to always use 12V switched on the hotside of your fan relays if using my LSX AC Controller. By the time this post goes live, all the diagrams in this thread should be correct.

Cars for sale / 1987 RX7 GXL LS/ T-56 swap ready roller.
« Last post by tsizj on Today at 08:57:50 AM »I am selling my 1987 RX7 GXL. I have only had the car for a few months but decided I would rather buy a Corvette again. The car is a roller with no engine/trans. The car did have an 8.8 setup but I sold that to my brother. I do have a diff to go with the car. Exterior of the car is 6.5/10 and interior is about the same. There is no hvac/ radio and the stock cluster was removed for an aftermarket gauge setup. I have no real idea on mileage unfortunately. This car was a running driving ls/t56 car before I bought it as a roller. previous owner sold the engine/ trans. I am located in Indianapolis, IN. I would like $2,500 right now for the car and all parts with it. Please feel free to message me on here for any questions or to get my contact info. Thanks, Brandon.

Parts for Sale / Re: Solid 100% Carbon Fiber Truck Bed
« Last post by frijolee on October 17, 2018, 10:41:32 PM »No way this is fitting in the container. The bed is only 4' wide as well. If I were doing an overland trailer it'd probably be an M1101 humvee trailer... However, I'm not sure how much overlanding you can do on an island that's only so big.
Plan is to cut it up on Friday. Some of the scrap might still make it's way onto the Cruiser
