ELD system and affects on ECU

Post by JBDC5 »

I have a Honda DC5 which we race in the UK. The car originally came from the middle east.
Since being in the UK it has been fully rebuilt and now has a race engine which was professionally built. The engine has uprated rods, pistons, cams & followers, balanced crank, lightened race flywheel and race clutch. The car runs a standard fuel tank which supplies a swirl pot and then has a circulating fuel system past the injectors (480cc). Car is running on a full race 3" exhaust and single Lamba sensor

We are running the car on and early Hondata system which has no memory so to map the car I have to strap in a laptop !!!
No Idea what Hondata number is.
I am using KManager version 4.2.6

My question is I am having an issue with charging I believe that I may have an Issue wit the ELD system.

If I replace the alternator with a standard 2 wire system will this cause any issues with the ECU. I understand I may get a light on the dash but I can live with this.

My plan is to simply run power from the existing line in and ignore the other 3 wires on the plug ?

Help or advice would be appretiated.

ELD does not have anything to do with actual charging.

I would recommend that you read the info at: http://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic. ... =eld+charg
