[DIY] [Guide] Drive Mode Memory Module (prototype)

[RogueIV]

It also acts kinda weird if I put it in Smart mode. On occasion it'll just stay in Eco instead of going to Smart. I don't really frequent those modes though Haven't talked with @budzique about it yet.

Has anyone heard from him about the auto hold not working properly?

The AutoHold works fine on my end.

It looks like some cars don't have full stability on the AH line, to fix this a 1k pulldown resister should be applied to pin 10 on the CD4504 and ground (any of the 4 mount points with exposed metal are ground.. It took me some time to locate a car that was affected by this and do some testing. As this resistor would work on all cars, it will be added to all future revisions.

Just installed mine and have the exact same issue, I don't really use either of those modes but wouldn't mind knowing what causes it.

A few went out with the green and yellow wires swapped, these are drive mode triggers, it's possible switching them between the positaps (match yellow through positap to green etc) then rotating the drive mode clockwise 10 times in order to sync it to custom mode, then switch modes to your desired mode after.

I'll give that a shot along with that resistor for AH since mine seems misremember it's state on occasion.

As a side note if you have an SMD 0603 or smaller resistor the pin directly above is gnd

Here’s a picture showing the pin that is also GND(pin 11), keep in mind the bottom pin (pin 8) should be avoided as it will short circuit 12V to the cpu and potentially damage the module

oh nice, that'll be cleaner. Thanks!

OK, *this* is the kind of stuff that makes automotive forums so valuable!

Thank you, @budzique, for putting this together. I hope it is worth your while.

To that end, I will be purchasing a KSDM3 Sport+ in the next day or two.

Quick question: It will turn off traction and stability control when Sport mode in the car is selected. May I assume it turns them back on when the controller is moved out of Sport to either Comfort or Custom?

Thank you, my education continues.

Purchased.

Looking forward to it!

Has anyone heard from @budzique recently?

Stinger.store took my order but I haven’t heard anything since and he hasn’t posted since early October.

Is he ok?

Can one choose which of traction / stability to disable when entering sport? What about when entering custom? I want to use ECO on the AWD to keep a 50-50 split, rather than default to 80-20. When hitting the throttle out of a corner on the track, 50-50 is a better default split than 80-20, slip, transfer to front, etc..

Not sure, but I also ordered the upgraded board and haven't heard anything back yet. I know he's a 1 man operation so not sure if he's just been busy.

That was my first thought, but with no response from his stinger.store site other than the automated response and his prolonged absence here after regular contributions, I’m worried…not that I know him at all other than reading a year’s worth of posts in one shot.

I hope he’s all right.

Another 3 weeks.

Has anyone heard from @budzique ?

 

[CiechomPL]

I also placed an order, paid and nothing but silence since months
If anyone knows what's going on with @budzique, please let us know as it looks like a one big scam

 

[RogueIV]

It's probably not a scam but regardless i'd initiate a charge back.

 

[DeltaV]

I was hoping to avoid that since I like to support the little guy who makes things like this out of his garage, but it’s probably wise.

I’d also like to know if he’s ok.

[obwoke] …or she or they

I would love to but there is no option to do so at his website. Further, I asked in my bank and they told me that I can't file a complaint because it's been a few months now since I paid, so no grounds for them to refund it back
