ECU Configuration

No ECU configuration is required.

Connection information

  • There is no plug and play solution for this car and it will require a connection being added onto the CAN high and low wires.
  • Locate the CAN high and low wires from referring to the information below and add an inline connector to the wires or cut and solder a wire and apply insulation over the connection
  • Refer to the Race Technology product manual for CAN high and CAN low

Option 1 – ECU

The ECU is behind the rear seats:

Disconnect the connector below and locate pins 36 light blue/white and 37 grey/white.

  • Connect Race Technology CAN high to blue/white
  • Connect Race Technology CAN low to grey/white


Option 2 – DASH connector

This option is slightly more tricky then option 1 as you need to remove the DASH. If you already have the DASH removed then it maybe a better option depending on where the Race Technology equipment if installed.

Remove the DASH so you can see the green connector below:

Carefully remove the Green hood of the connector:

Locate pins A15 light blue/white wire and A31 grey/white wire:
