Hello folks I am restoring an R53 cooper and want to get an EGT sensor for all 4 cylinders for my mini cooper mostly to make it easier for me to catch my mistakes and cut off the engine before it cooks itself when I will inevitably make a mistake. Is it possible to run 4 EGT sensors on an R53 computer?
quick skim of the manual here and the CAN H and L are on one of the DTM12 connectors.
If you need 4 EGT sensors then using a CAN based EGT amp is the best route. There is 2 EGT sensor connections on the other DTM12 connector.
You may need to alter the address the CAN data is being sent on, this is pretty easy to do with the Ecumaster CAN to EGT device since it’s USB programmable.
