Hello!
Im totaly new to this, and I don't wanna be rude just jumping in here asking questions. I am building a bypass valve on my car, to bypass the rear silencer. The kit I'm going to buy is an electric motor that opens and closes the valve, it comes with a crappy remote that I'm not gonna use, instead I would like to use a very sexy push button that I laying around, the problem is that the electric valve is not a servo, it's just a simple electric motor with ground and power.
So I figure that the smallest Arduino should be able to help me out.
When I push the push button, it will run the electric motor for about 3 seconds, that will open the valve. The next time I push it, it should run the electric motor for 3 seconds in the other direction, the Arduino should change the current direction making the electric motor go the other way, so the Arduino is basically an operator that handles my request, this should be fairly simple to code from what I've seen the Arduino do on YouTube, the problem is that I know squat about it, so I was hoping that someone could code this as simple as possible for me and I'll pay for it!
I hope this is not viewed as rude or anything, I just dont see any other option, unless there's premade Relays that do this exact thing(?)
Really appreciate any response, and I hope you guys understand what I'm after, here's a link and image to the electric valve just so you can get an idea: Valve Image
sorry
