Tech help please - Standard ECM Voltages...
Guys, I need a little info please...
I'm Brenon, Owner of Lectric Enterprises and I'm in the process of designing a new version of the complete dash electronics package for the third generation(1982~1992) Firebird and Trans Am. I would like to know if anyone here knows or knows where I can obtain the ECM voltage / resistance specs that are needed to design electronics for monitoring such engine and emissions components like the MAF sensor, the MAT sensor, the water temp sending unit, ect.
For example, one already known is the TPS- at closed throttle, the TPS sends a voltage reading of about .5 volts and at wide open throttle, it sends a voltage reading of about 4.5 volts.
Any info would be MUCH appreciated!

Check out the tech articles here, Im not sure but they list alot of info there, and I know over at TPI PARTS, they have alot of that kind of information in their tech section. They tell you the resistance specs at temps for the Intake air temp sensor, coolant sensor, etc.

It would probably be easier to get the info from the ECM data at the ALDL. Little bit of programing, but a lot less wiring, and more accurate.
