Hi Gents (and Ladies), I just wanted to quickly say thanks for setting up this forum & threads such as this one in particular. The IQ unit conversion (& DZ HVAC conversion) is something I've wanted to do for quite a while, but it wasn't until December last year that I finally got my backside into gear and started buying the bits needed.
I sent my IQ unit off to doubledip and got it reprogrammed, got the patch harness etc and was pretty well set to go... Then had a few issues (currently in week 2 of 6 weeks off work (& off my feet) due to an ankle reconstruction) so I figured that I'd go the 'whole hog', I have managed to source an actual dual zone heaterbox with most of the attachments still in place (some sensors, wiring, all the actuators etc), it just needed my new dual zone HVAC to be plugged in, since then I have also scored an entire dash wiring harness and even a body wiring harness and god knows how, but everything I've scored so far has been out of either a 2011 or 2012 SS ute.
I've got all the piano black parts (even the steering wheel controls), got the later model centre console with the USB / Aux plugs.
Now I'm just waiting until I'm literally back on my feet, then I'm going to take a week or so, guy the entire interior of my MY9.5 SS Ute, and bring her up to full series II spec (even going to upgrade the steering wheel and gear stick to the red/black leather at the same time).
I'm not going to lie, all this talk about EEPROM and reprogramming has gone way over my head (i'm a tradie in the army, but avoid computers and electrickery like the plague) so I think that even though this way of doing things is doing to be far more labour intensive, it's more appropriate for my skill level
Oh yeah, I've posted a question in another part of this forum just trying to seek some clarification on position of two temperature sensors when doing this upgrade, the location for the interior ambient temperature sensor seems to conflict with the parts diagram I got from Holden (and with the DZ heater box I have sitting in my garage) and I'm a little stumped with the location of the external one too.
I've got now doubt that there will be somewhere on this forum that someone else has asked the same question or put up details so if someone could please point me to the right area of this forum it'd be greatly appreciated.
