Bumping this thread. agnewfedaykin SpectacleG8X how are you liking this thing? Would you say the hassle of the install is worth it?
I’ve coded off ASD and my exhaust is stock. For now at least. |

With it being updatable I’m hoping they add more features since it’s a CAN interpreter such as switching to M Mode when you hit an M1 or M2 button. Or my complaint of the car starting with the ASD button on an the ability to default it to off. I also wish the safety mode was editable to more than 50mph so I could force it closed 100% of the time for inspection time 😅. Overall 9/10 an they also have a kit now that allows you to intercept the signal at the valve plug to avoid cutting and splicing any wires.

What part of your pictures ended up being incorrect. I followed the instructions and OPs tips. The valves aren't moving, box is connected and programable, and exhaust valve ground codes. Do the settings within the car itself matter now? For example with a standard override setup you can do sport plus with the sound off. Quick pedal feel without the burbles. I'm getting ready to open it back up again. Silly mistake for not testing it before buttoning it up lol |

Thank you for replying so quickly! Had I not figured it out you would have made me consider there again lol the module powers on with usb connection. It tricked me into thinking it’s getting power from the car. |

I finished installing the Awron controller module and after testing it, when I press the exhaust button to turn off the “ASD" on the center console it does not close the valves as it suppose to. I checked inside the muffler tips with a light to see the exhaust flaps and it looks like they are fully open no matter what mode you are in and they don’t seem to close at all. I can connect to the Awron config tool successfully via usb and in the config tool I have “ASD OFF” checked but It still activates the fake exhaust sounds when I toggle the “ASD button” from the center console. Any ideas or suggestions of what i can do to fix these problems?

m2dragon - I am having the same issue. Just installed mine yesterday and it looks like the valves are stuck open now. When I select an M mode, it turns on the exhaust through the speakers it appears. I have emailed Tom, just waiting for a reply.
The only trick part was finding the brown/green wire. I used the ECU plug at the front of the car and used the brown/grey wire and one that was brown/mint green. There were two other wires that were brown and more of a darker green. I will note that originally I did cut the brown/dark green wire first and it gave me a drivetrain error so I knew something was wrong. They connected that back and used the other brown/mint green wire and that went away, but I also have a driver assistance error now...help...lol |

Try a different spot for power. That was my problem. When the laptop is connected it provides power to the module making you think that it's getting power. The asd disable doesn't work. I coded the car to disable that "feature." |

Thank you I will try that this weekend, the purple wire is currently inserted in a empty socket and with a 5amp fuse plugged in the front side, so I guessing it is not getting power, should I just tap in to an existing wire using a fuse wire tap?

Yes, or better - verify 12V power with a multimeter.
