I'll start by saying that I have an obvious bias in this area because I make these aftermarket controllers...with that said....
It's not a good idea to run with direct power to your dccd coil for any length of time. 12v or 6v won't make any difference except in terms of amperage, it will heat up and burn out the solenoid in a short period of time. Describing it as a 6-7 volts signal is a "dumbed down" way to explain it to the techs/mechanics so they can check it with a multimeter instead of a scope. The signal is PWM so 6-7 volts is probably close enough to the signal RMS. I have suggested it in the past to people to run a switch with tons of caveats. It is ok for limited dyno or occasional use for a few minutes if you are stuck or something like that. |

COrrect. The input voltage to the clutch coil is RMS voltage. Its pulsed. Hooking direct current to it will fry it. I have seen this first hand by a guy hooking 12 to the coil. It fried the DCCD diff in a short time and had to be replaced.

thanks clark, its good to hear that you've had first hand experience with this. hopefully when someone searches this idea later on they will run across this thread with the definate "do not do it" answer, and not 'pull up your ebrake to make your dccd work' lol
