Overview The Haltech Direct Current Motor Driver (DCMD) delivers precise control over DC motors in your performance build, from electronic wastegate actuators to throttle bodies and HVAC systems. This compact 86mm x 55.5mm module expands your ECU's capability to drive high-current DC loads that would otherwise damage sensitive ECU outputs. Technical Specifications Part Number: HT-038009 Dimensions: 86mm x 55.5mm Output Type: Direct Current Motor Control Control Method: PWM Signal Input Application: High-Current DC Motor Loads Why You Need This Modern turbo builds increasingly rely on electronic wastegate control for precise boost management, but ECU outputs aren't designed to handle the current demands of DC actuators like Turbosmart E-gates. Without proper current handling, you risk damaging expensive ECU outputs or experiencing erratic actuator behaviour that compromises boost control and engine safety. The DCMD solves this by providing a robust interface between your ECU's low-current control signals and high-current DC loads. It's particularly crucial in LS turbo swaps, SR20 builds running electronic wastegates, or any application where you're controlling DC motors for throttle bodies, HVAC blend doors, or variable geometry systems. We've seen countless builds where attempting to drive these loads directly through ECU outputs results in failed output stages and expensive repairs. ECU & System Compatibility The DCMD works with the complete Haltech range including Elite 550, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 ECUs, plus all Nexus R3, R5, and Rebel units. Platinum Series ECUs can drive the DCMD through standard outputs, though they lack the native E-gate control functions available on Elite and Nexus platforms.
