1.0 Introduction
The Mitsubishi EVO 4-8 ECU is designed to be plugged into the OEM harness to allow for a
true “Plug and Play” install. The system is based on the KV Series Motorsport ECU, so all the
same features are available excluding any limitations based around the OEM connector
system. An Expansion port is included giving access to unused Input channels. CAN Bus 2 is
also available providing additional I/O expandability.

3.2 CAN Bus 2 Wiring
The ECU CAN Bus 2 is reserved for Emtron CAN Bus devices, expanding the IO capability of
the ECU. The following devices can be connected:
▪ELC1/2 (Emtron Lambda to CAN 1/2 channel)
▪ETC4/ETC8M (Emtron Thermocouple to CAN 4/8 channels)
▪EIC10/EIC16M (Emtron Input to CAN 10/16 Channel)
For more information on each device refer to the downloads section on the website:
(emtron.world/downloads)
Emtron ELC/ETC4/EIC10 to CAN
All these CAN devices share a common power, ground and CAN pinout using a 4-way DTM.
See Table 3.1.

The following points should be noted when using the CAN Bus:
▪CAN Bus High and Low are differential signals, so twisted pair MUST be used. Failing to
do so will compromise the entire CAN Bus System. It is recommended to twist the CAN
wire pairs at a minimum one twist per 40mm of cable.
▪In some extreme environments, shielded twisted pair may be required to help with
reliability and data integrity.
▪The less connectors in any transmission system the better. Unnecessary connectors are
almost guaranteed to present an impedance discontinuity and hence may cause
reflections and data loss.
▪CAN Bus termination must be done correctly by using a 120 ohm 0.25W resistor at each
END of the bus system. See the example in Figure 3.1.
▪Maximum Stub length to a device from the main Bus is recommended at 0.3m, in
accordance with High-Speed ISO 11898 Standard specification. See Figure 3.2.
ALL Emtron CAN devices do not include an on-board CAN termination resistor, allowing the
device to be wired at any position on the Bus. CAN Bus termination must be done correctly
by using a 120 ohm 0.25W resistor at each end of the bus system as mentioned above.
Figure 3.1. CAN Bus Wiring Example. ECU and ELC1 at each end with 120 Ohm Termination

3.3 Sensor Wiring
5V VRef2 Sensor Supply Pin (Pin 2 of Expansion port)
This is a 250mA 5V output designed to supply automotive sensors.
Sensor 0V Reference Pin (Pin 1 of Expansion port)
This pin should be connected directly to the 0V (Ground) pin on any low current analog
sensor, for example Pressure or Temperature. Figures 3.3 and 3.4 show the correct and
incorrect wiring system.
•DO NOT connect the 0V Reference pin directly to the Engine Block or ECU Ground. This
is a dedicated and specialised 0V/ground output for analog sensors.
•DO NOT connect frequency-based sensor grounds to the 0V Reference pin; for example,
an Ethanol content sensor. Use Pin 8 (Ground) in the Expansion port.

3.4 Ethanol Content Sensor wiring
An Ethanol Content sensor can be wired into the ECU using the Expansion port. The
following channel assignment is recommended for the GM sensor:

NOTE:
▪DO NOT connect the Ethanol Content sensor ground to the “Analog Sensor 0V
Reference”. Use the ECU Ground from Pin 10 in the Expansion port.
▪The Ethanol sensor produces a frequency based output. Suitable ECU channels are DI 1-
8.

50Hz = 0% Ethanol
150Hz = 100% Ethanol
Fuel Temperature
1ms = -40 DegC
5ms = 125 DegC
To config the ECU for this sensor, select the Ethanol Sensor Input Source to DI6. The ECU will
automatically decode the Ethanol Content and Fuel Temperature.

5.0 Plug-in Specific Information
5.1 Fuel Model
The base ECU calibration is supplied in Speed Density mode. It is recommended to install an
Emtron 4Bar MAP sensor and wire it to a spare ANV Input in the Emtron expansion port.
The ECU may also be configured to run on MAF only or using a combination MAF and Speed
Density (MAP).
5.2 Inlet Air Temperature
ECU Pin 72 is assigned to the Inlet Air Temperature Sensor. The sensor is physically located
in the Mass Air Flow Meter. This is not ideal for the fuel model and it is recommended to
install an inlet air temperature sensor in the inlet manifold. This can be wired directly to pin
3 in the Emtron expansion port connector as shown in Table 3.0. Anv8 may then be
assigned in the inputs setup page in Emtune.
Some EVO models have an inlet air temperature sensor fitted however this is not accounted
for in the Emtron Plugin ECU. It is recommended to wire to the expansion port connector.
5.3 ECU Pin 40 Configuration
ECU Pin 40 configuration will depend on the model. A low current, low side driver is
connected to this pin controlled by Auxiliary Output 13.
EVO 8- Crank/Cam Sensor Ground
This is a ground pin for the Crank and Cam sensors and acts as an immobiliser function. Aux
13 needs to be switched ON to provide a ground and allow the engine to start.
EVO 4-7 –CAT Light
This is the CAT light and requires a ground to switch the light on. Aux 13 can be used to
control this light.

6.0 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
On initial installation it is advised to clear all the DTC's if error(s) are reported. To check:
connect to Emtune and look at the DTC status in the bottom toolbar. If there are Errors the
status box will be Red as shown in Figure 6.0.
Figure 6.0. DTC example showing 8 errors.
To open the DTC window, click on the DTC Status box in the bottom toolbar OR use the File
menu -> Open DTC. Next select "Clear ALL DTCs” and confirm all the Error Codes have been
removed; the DTC Status box should go Green indicating this as shown in Figure 6.1. Close
the DTC window.
Figure 6.1. DTC example showing no errors.
If the Error Codes have not all been removed, select "Update DTC" then use the DTC
window to locate the sensor that is on fault.
