Hi Adam, I'm using 6.18.8. One thing I noticed is that the voltage on trigger scope only reaches ~3.8V, I wonder if voltage threshold is not high enough to register as "high". I can have a look with a oscilloscope and see if there are any noises, or signal offsets etc. Other than above, I'm running out of ideas apart from giving a go at wiring the CAS directly to ECU instead of using the factory wiring.

Hello, I have recently installed Link G4X for MX5 on a naturally aspirated 1996 MX-5 NA (with custom 3-plug harness adapter), but 50% of the time having issues starting the car potentially due to trigger sync loss (trigger 1 error counter going up during cranking); whether the engine is cold or hot. Sometimes the car starts fine normally, but sometimes I need to repeat the cranking few times which is frustrating in cases where the engine is stalled mid-traffic etc. Using the "Mazda MX5" trigger mode, with RPM filtering set to 1 and trigger offset is set to 0. The car only has camshaft angle sensor (CAS) on the exhaust camshaft (it spits out 2 signals), it does not have any sensors at the crank. I've checked the timing is correct when the engine is running. Checked with trigger calibration (locked to 10 deg BTDC) along with a timing light. Also tried changing the trigger edge type to both falling and rising, it only appears to start when trigger edge type is set to ALL. I haven't touched the wiring as it uses factory harness. Attached trigger scope log when the car is not starting, and the other one when the car is idling. Thank you! Eric TriggerScopeLog not starting 1.llgx TriggerScopeLog running idle.llgx
