I am wondering how a Bosch 0280750526 throttle body which I have on my Lada Niva ВАЗ 21214 Нива VAZ 21214 Year 2014 can be controlled using the speeduino 0.4.3c?
I was reading about PWM and stepper, which one is the above mentioned and how to work with it?
happy tuning

I don't think it can - it's a drive-by-wire throttle isn't it? you'd additionally need a controller for it, like this one. viewtopic.php?p=65130#p65130
(but there may be others)

thanks for the link.

It's a Lada Niva year 2014.
Aren't all cars drive by wire?
Is there anything other than drive by wire?
Is speeduino for historic cars only?

No, but as you can program any part of Speeduino to work in any way, the drive-by-wire was not included as it could easily become a danger with poor or accidental setup or use. Commercial DBW cannot be configured like Speeduino. It is also a large processing load if designed well for function and redundancy, and adds more chips and cost to the design in order to have safety cross-check and advanced functions (economy, emissions, torque control, etc). Put all of that together, and it was simply left out for you to use the DBW/ETC of your choice that works for your needs.

To me, this is a smart move, as most want more functions than a simple throttle control. Modern DBW can accomplish many things with many features, so it's either a foot-follower, or capable of many modes. There is no way to predict what you need for yours, so that is left to you to decide and add the right type to your system.

jonbill's link was pretty good. easy to achieve. I don't need fancy stuff, just something that openes the throttle. It has safeties which is good enough to me.

thanks for the explanation

thanks guys for guiding me into that direction. that was great help!
If someone needs an arduino capable drive-by-wire racetrack-throttle-controller, I am passing a few on because I can't just order one alone.
