Anyone know the pinout for the 55 pin ECU connector. Am trying to trace the circuit of one and I wondered if I could take a shortcut?

The company that makes the ECU is just down the road from me in Cirencester, i believe.

MBE won't talk to you the minute you tell them its a cerbera, I've tried.
They have a funny handshake pact with TVR not to divulge. They will tell you its significantly different from their standard kit though.

Ok, sorted. Funny thing, I've now got a Cerbera ECU live and running on the desk in front of me.

Its a little upset right now as it doesn't understand why its not connected to an engine, but despite its obvious apprehension I've been able to settle it by feeding it a constant crank sensor input.

Its now purring quietly in the corner while I slowly fiddle with its sensors and ask it testing questions, like wheres your battery input.

Soon it will trust me and once it does Wham! I'll ask it wheres your fuel map, or do you want to play ignition today.

Note to self, must get out more.
