AMP Plug-and-Play ECU - Ford 1986-1993 Foxbody Mustang 5.0

The NEW full standalone AMP Play-N-Play ECU for the 1986-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0 and 1986-1988 Thunderbird 5.0, installs in under 1 hour.
www.diyautotune.com


Anyone familiar with this unit? What does it have for spare outputs? Is there a single PWM output that can be used for Fan Module control?

From AMP/EFI website:

  • Automatic cooling fan activation with A/C, user configurable
  • Cooling Fan Control
  • Programmable fan on and off activation points
  • Can be configured to run fan with engine running only, or when engine is running and not running
  • Feed-forward idle up for use with large, high demand fans
  • Configurable fan deactivation based on TPS or VSS
  • 5 PWM outputs
  • 2 digital outputs
  • 12 analog inputs plus built-in MAP, Baro, and internal ECU temp sensor
  • 3 high current digital/pwm outputs
  • Any unused injector outputs can be used as high current digital or PWM outputs

I cherry picked the ones that apply.

But that's the universal unit.

I'm looking at the Mustang specific one. If you look through the installation guide, it shows wiring pinouts

This is the additional functions plug on the top of the unit. I don't see anything here i can use as a PWM output fr fan control.

Edit: Might be able to use L or P. I think this will work



This is the standard 60-pin hookup

Isn't it the same head unit with an application specific harness or are there other differences?

Stinger has up to 5 PWM outputs. Plug and play.

They can only output 3A. You can't power any e-fan with 3A. You need at least 30A. How do you say that is plug and play?

That's more than enough to operate a relay. Juss' Sayin'

Use the 3A output to drive a relay, I never implied running a fan off a 3A output.

Not looking for an output to directly run a relay or fan itself.


Looking for a pwm output to control a fan controller


I think it has it
