    Default 20v Silvertop Auto ECU with non electronic Auto gearbox - will it work?

    As the title says....

    Am I going to run into problems running the 20v A/T ECU in rwd with a non electronic Auto from an AE71 corolla?

    Does the ecu need specific input data from the auto to get it to run?

    You will need to trick the ECU to think its in neutral otherwise the car won't start.

    Hey Skids,

    Thanks for the link. guess what..." I did"

    That's why I have Phil Bradshaws pin out plus three different copies of the 20v wiring diagram sitting here on my desk for the past few months.

    I have since spoken to a mate and we've sorted how to give the ecu a neutral signal From my current auto.

    and for others looking for wiring diagrams check this link.

    Thanks for your help.
