Which makes sense, since the brakes need human input (when the car is started) and to know what the rate of braking is for regenerative braking. So the iBooster has 2 CAN busses, to communicate with 2 different parts of the car. EPT in an HEV is the electric power trian: two black wires that go to a plug in the fluid reservoir. The park pawl - the device that locks the transmission in place when in Park - is electronically controlled by the EPT/HEV CAN bus, which releases it only if the brake pedal is depressed.” The iBooster has lots of wires fat yellow - power fat black - earth red/yellow - ignition or brake switch (notice this wire branches into 2) red/white - brake switch or ignition (notice this wire branches into 2) optional wires couple of CAN twisted pairs. The Electronic Shift Module (ESM) sends the shifter position and neutral block release to the PIM ( via the CAN-C bus and EPT-CAN system).

“The driver uses an electronic shifter in the center of the dashboard when the ignition is on and the brake pedal is applied, the driver can rotate the shift knob to select the conventional Park, Reverse, Neutral, or Drive modes. Many of the vehicles that are currently using a Class C data bus are operating at speeds of around 500 Kbps, which is fast enough for powertrain control modules, air bag modules, and fast-acting antilock brake and stability control systems.”īut what is CAN C EPT? After a lot of web searching I finally found this article, which is a detailed tech blog about the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid system: Class C systems can operate at speeds up to 1 megabits per second, which is up to 100 times faster than a typical Class B data bus. “Class C is currently the fastest data bus rating.

The contact breaker is used purely as a low voltage, low current switch. The original engine points and timing advance mechanism (if fitted) are retained, although the condensor is removed completely. It’s another name for the high speed (500 kbps) CAN bus. The Rooster Booster is a points assisted electronic ignition system, sometimes refered to as an Energy Booster or Transistor Ignition System. Why are there 2 CAN busses (pins 10, 16, 18, and 25)? Here is the pin out:įinding information on the CAN C bus was straight forward. Since I had purchased the iBooster from them, they offered to sell me the pigtail, which I bought.Īll of the connectors are straightforward, but something on the large connector was puzzling me. A pigtail is the connector and cut cables that can be spliced into a new harness.

They also noted they have a full pigtail assembly of the 3 connectors. I emailed the great folks at HSR/057, and they told me the 2 pin connector is the reservoir sensor (which was my guess). The second was not detailed in the thread. The DMCTalk thread about the iBooster identified and sourced the first and third connectors. Now that the iBooster was mechanically mounted, I needed to understand the electrical signals to it. A side effect of this is to move the clevis you need to power the iBooster. The clevis of the iBooster waits to be connected to the pedal It fit that well! I did not to cut off a small piece of plastic from the cover to clear the spare wheel well.
