Notes

Auto-mapped by auto_map() from the library pin data on 2026-10-04. Review every wire against both manuals before building. Not wired: - OEM-1 A: Constant +12V: Emtron SL6 has no battery-constant input; not needed - SL6-B 4: Ignition switch input: not fed (the stock ECU has no ignition-sense pin); feed it from a switched-ignition source
