I've got the SAFC-II installed and it's working fine. I have went to the settings for setting up the knock warning and it just shows 2 rpm settings. I believe one is at 1600rpm and the other at 3500rpm. Do I rev the car to those settings in neutral or in 1st gear? After I press NEXT nothing happens. Does it automatically set after that?

Thanks,

I believe you have the japanese manual, so i'm gonna try to translate it for you.

For 1: In neutral, keep your RPM betwen 1300 - 1700, (1600 rpm is just an example), after keeping the rpm steady, you press the knob/joystick to the right, then afc should remember the reading. if there was an error, rpm would show 0 rpm, so try it again.

For 2: in neutral, this time between 3200 - 3700 rpm, and do the same thing as 1. if there is an error, rpm would show 0, so try it again.

Then, go into the monitor mode and choose knk, and make sure there's no x mark next to the number.

Warning: the knock monitoring mode might show lower knock than its actual reading, even when there is damage to your engine, due to the knocking or fuel mixture problems.

I hope this helps, if not, maybe i can meet up with you sometime to translate everything clearly in person.

I'll be in your area this weekend. so lemme know.
