DSG Control.

NOTE: Do NOT activate the MaxxECU Default V1.3 CAN output on the same bus as the DSG, cause it will interfere with the control operation and cause trans going to neutral and random strange issues.

NOTE: PDM20 uses the 0x50 CAN message ID for communication, which might be available on some Audi (equipped with airbag modules), do NOT use on the same bus!

Note: The MaxxECU does NOT need to control the engine for the DSG control feature to work, the MaxxECU just needs to be aware of the above engine data values.

 

 

Standalone controller examples

Note: It is entirely possible, but please note that for the best experience, MaxxECU SHOULD control both the engine and the gearbox.
