I was very lucky to purchase an SV6 wheel last year with paddles attached, so I'm set there. And all the wiring is done from the column down the the transmission. Just have to put it all together now.

I'll leave the fuel stuff alone, probably better to start a new thread for that. Getting back to the topic of ABS, I went back into my GTOs ABS module and looked at the settings I put into it so it would be happy with the E38. I couldn't simply select whatever I wanted, the Tech2 only allowed...

I know how to program one and how to security link. What I'm wondering is when I go to link it will I need to provide a security code that I need to get from the dealership?

I've got a friend here in Wisconsin with a Pontiac G8 GXP that has been parked for quite a while. It wouldn't start, said Contact Dealer, and I diagnosed it to have a dead ECU. So I need to replace it, and I have a Tech 2 so I can program a new one. But I've never programed an ECU for a VE...

I have an oil temp sensor wired in on my GTO and the one time I threw an E38 on it with a VE OS, I got readings. But because I couldn't security link it and the ABS was freaked out I didn't leave it in. As far as the FPCM, I tuner friend of mine over here got me into the idea of using one. He...

My friend in the States found out something when he built his S10 with the 3.6 and 6L50. He uses an E67 with a 2009 Cadillac CTS operating system. E67s and E38 have a lot of software similarities. There is a memory address that is set in the OS to tell it what kind of transmission to look for...

Do you happen to know which CAN ID a V6 ECU is looking for ABS data on?

I think you're right, because you can copy the VE setting to the VZ OS and it won't work. I figure it's some other bit value(s) that have to be changed outside of HPTuners or EFILive, or that sensor is being read but the data isn't being broadcast on the CAN. Here's the settings from a VE OS.

Biggest reason would be to have an oil temp sensor. It's there in HPTuners for the 12607218 and 12609099 OSes, but does not work. It does work in an 07 VE OS. I also want the ability to run a factory Fuel Pump Control Module. The 12609099 OS does support this so if I could get around the ABS...

Unrelated, but if I could just get a VE E38 OS to talk to a VZ ABS module without throwing fault codes, it would make the VZ platform the most exciting to play with for the next couple years! I am loving the work that so many are doing right now with this platform. I am more motivated than...

Saw the video as well. I'm dying to know how you hacked the cluster and added your own gear numbers.

This s*** just got real!

I think the only hard wire automatic shifter that exists out there is from the early C6 Chevrolet Corvette. My mate got his truck over here working with an Oldsmobile Bravada floor shifter and a shifter head out of a Saturn Vue with TUTD buttons. Factory shifters for direct wire to the TCM are...

I I'm glad to hear you got it working. And you took the next step I would have and switched the dash to 5L40 mode. I think in the end I'll be switching my PIM and ABS module to 5L40 mode so I can get ESP working as well. For reverse I'm going to follow a mate's example over here. He put a 6L50...

I had to add the wire to my harness for the 6L80 conversion as well. The nice thing is it's only one wire.
