VW DSG DQ500 gen.2 Wiring Guide

Installing universal standalone GCU requires certain modifications to be done to the mechatronics unit inside VW DSG DQ50 gen.2 transmission.

Actual for 1.0.9b-6 release

To modify it You’ll need:

CAUTION: This modification require soldering experience and steady hand due to very tight location of soldering

RECOMMENDATION: please use NOISE SUPPRESION circuit that can be found at HTG e-SHOP to minimize risk of signal noise. Circuit description can be found at WIKI / WIRING / NOISE troubleshooting

ANOTHER CAUTION: Gen.2 of DQ500 comes without clutch speed and temperature sensor by default! It has socket allowing to connect the same one as us!ed in Gen.1. This sensor canbe purchased here:https://htg-tuning.com/shop/dq500-shaft-speed-and-temperature-sensor/

After removing unit from valve body it is strongly recommended to degrease whole assembly to improve ease of modification and keep your workplace clean. Universal degreaser works just fine as well as brake cleaner or so.
