On our Megasquirt 3 with 3.0 mainboard, I had to add two jumperwires between CPU and D37 to bring the signals out to the connector.. then I had to wire externally between the MS and the CANx module, which has a 4" jumper to the RJ45 socket on my MK1 hardware. It works, though Megasquirt's default broadcasting seems to overwhelm the MK1. I can get coolant and MAP numbers through to RCP dashboard, but trying for all the variables in the sample MS lua script is more than it can handle.

Wow, sorry. It has been so long since I bought the RCP2 I forgot about the documentation.

I most likely have to add jumpers as well. I checked out my board before and it didn't look like the signal was carried to D37.
