Looking at Pedal 1/2, you have not baselined these, as they have different values.
I'm sure you will need to set the closed/open throttle stops before it can work.
Also, the CAN errors would also need resolved.

another night spent and still no further on
the can link error is the cause of all problems but i cant figure out why, i rewired my can wires between ecu and stc, my can wires go direct into the ecu and what i have done is crimpped 2 wires into the same pin and then fed that into the stc controller.
i know most of you are prob reading this and think im stupid lol
asked my mapper if he has ever woked with the stc controller and he tells me he has never had to deal with one.............all dta ecus he's worked with have been cable throttles
if i can figure out the can error that should then make the tb funtional

Methinks - f**k it - where's the old cable operation and do a conversion! This ain't a plane - what benefit is FBW throttle anyway - only to take control away from the driver!

With suitable control strategies, there are many benefits with DBW
However....do many ecu's offer these ? Nope lol So at present for 90% of cars, DBW is a novelty or a hassle...whichever way you look at it.
I'll stick with mechanical throttles for a while yet

so anyone got any ideas to my can error?
some ppl say it needs activated on the ecu? im either blind or stupid but i cant see anything.

well there are 3 windows i havnt seen in this thread yet..
Engine configuration -> Throttle stops
Other map settings -> Electronic pedal settings
Other map settings -> Data stream
i dont have an electronic pedal so cant really tell you if you need them, but imo, its worth a look at these.

problem solved, i had my can wires from my clocks into the ecu, then from ecu to stc
my mate told me to disconect the dash can wires from ecu and just link ecu to stc and hey presto

That raises another query.
Surely CAN by nature should allow connection of multiple devices ? Surely it isnt limited to a single device ?
