Re: V8 Crossfire Conversion Diary
I asked Robert Krause about the RCM and he said he already thought of that and had checked it and it is fine. It was a pretty slow day as we still cannot locate a DRB3 with the right pcm card and cable. Anyone got one? We did find a couple of guys with the DRB3 but they don't have the card and cable that is specific to working on the Crossfire. I am going to check Ebay for the card and cable. It would be great if someone had one that could loan it to me.
One of the issues we found was that the Crossfire has all the same type of modules as a SLK320 and all have MB part numbers on them but some of the part numbers are specific to the Crossfire. The reason for the differences is that we have differnt equpment than a SLK such as a wing, differnt size wheels/tires and our coupes don't have retractable roofs. In Star DAS developer mode we were able to comunicate with and program all the modules except the anit-theft module. We tried to enter the anti-theft as many different vehicles in DAS but was unable to talk to the anit-theft system. We believe the only way to get into the anti-theft system is with the Chyrsler DRB3 system.
