rpm circuit
Hi, new to the forum, with little electrical knowledge myself, but this seemed to be the place to ask around. I have a project i want to attempt, here are the details:
I want to create an LED lit Angel Eye for the headlight of my car,
(for those of you whom dont know what an Angel Eye is, its the luminated halo or loop around the main projector headlight, often seen on BMWs, and it is entirely asthetic in nature)
I would like to use a dual color LED (specificly blue and red) that would transition (smoothly) between the two in cordination with the RPMs for car.
Wether this be by tapping the wire from the ECU, or directly tapping into it behind the RPMs display, i still dont know how, and dont know the specifics of creating a smooth transition between colors (possibly alternating the two colors faster than the eye can distinguish to create blending effect?)
Specifics are
LED: 5mm, dual voltage
Acrylic Ring, incase anyone wants to know,
car is 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer ES, automatic
Havent been able to find a pin diagram for ECU, if anyone knows where i might find one please say so.
Thanks and if anyone has any advice or ideas for how i might do this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again!
