Posted Tue Sep 26, 2006, 3:21pm Subject: Remapping Giemme to Gicar on ECM giotto?
I just received a replacement for the relay box on my giotto - and it's different on the new Gicar from the old Giemme. I'm wondering if any lurkers here might have some insight for how to hook up the new unit. I am cross posting here from HB since it seems to be secret knowledge... ;-) Original article, with pictures, is on HB here:
Well... I'm trying to replace. I replaced dead unit last year, and that's dead (judging from the same behavior I'm dealing with again). The replacement I got last year is labeled 'giemme' and the new one is a 'gicar'. One of the relays in the giemme is dated 12/99 and the gicar board has a date inside of 06/05 - and now the posts for the wiring look different. Can anyone help out? I figured the #8 on the black label was ground (green wire / unshielded terminal). The thin blue wire went from #10 black (giemme) to F9 on the white (gicar)label, which was 'serb' on both. I then assumed the thin clear conductor 's.liv.' (giemme) was = 'cald' (gicar). The rest I'm hosed on. Can anyone help me out? What I have is:
Gicar F1 - F F2 - C.Carichi and N F3 - Res RL1 F4 - Ev Cald RL2 F5 - Pompa RL2 F6 - Abil Erog F7 - (ground, I think) F8 - Cald F9 - Serb
Giemme Well... just check out the picture. If you guys have any ideas of what wire should go where, let me know! I did find one reference to some of the info from another site:
--------- EG -- electrovalve grupo -- > group brew solenoid RE -- resistence electrico (or something like that) -- > heating element AE -- alimentare electrovalve -- > boiler fill solenoid MP -- motor pompa -- > pump motor L -- dunno (ground/earth, maybe?) --------
Therefore, my guess is that (old giemme to new gicar) should go something like: #6 resistenza to F3 res RL1 #7 gruppo to F6 abil erog .... and that's about all I would hazard a guess at.
