VAFC Help
Sup people, I just have a quick question....I have a VAFC just chillin in my room, but I was wondering, if its been disconnected from a car, could I still be able to use it? Also, the guy I bought it from cut the harness and soldered everything to his car like a retard, so if I bought the PnP harness, could I still get it to work just fine?
Thanks
Thanks
yes you can still use it but the settings will most likely be different for your car than they were for the last car it was in.
And soldering is not retarted, thats probably the best way to make the connections so they don't accidentally come loose. I solder everything in my car and i've never had a problem yet.

Yea, just make sure before you START your car, to put the settings on the afc back to stock, so to speak. As long as there is wire left, there is some way to work it out.

What I meant was that he cut the connectors off and had them soldered..I guess I forgot to mention that

right, i understood. Every VAFC ive ever installed i did the same thing. It saves you 100 bucks or whatever for the plug and play harness and assures you of a good connection that isnt gonna come loose.
If you want, buy the plug and play harness and cut the connectors on that and solder the VAFC straight to the wires on the harness, then you still have a solid connection and you can remove it easily if you ever sell your car.
Ive seen a few people use the connectors and they work perfect but ive also seen a few that had them come apart and then they rack their brains trying to figure out why their car wont start or run right. Just trying to help you out a bit. If you can solder then just go for it.
