    I have never seen a DI input fail.

    From memory though (based on playing with MR2s) when wiring the hall effect sensor straight to the Link ECU you use 5V not 12V as the power for the hall sensor where the factory dash uses 12V to power the hall sensor and I have seen the ECU not pick it up when using a 12V power supply I think due to the signal not dropping low enough. This might be your issue if you have the bypassed the hardware in the dash that converts the signal and an oscilloscope would be able to show if this is the case.

    thanks Vaughan the odd thing is it used to work perfectly fine

    The video has not uploaded properly by the looks.  So what are the 2 voltage levels you are seeing?  Why does the handbrake affect it?

    ahh ok, handbrake is just to stop the wheels rotating while running. wheels stopped was showing 1.5v then released the wheels it spiked to 11.3v then 3.9v.

    With a led test light it would pulse when the wheels were rotating.

    JZA80 speed signal from factory goes from the Speed sensor -> Dash -> Odometer -> ECU

    The odometer changes to signal from one type to another before sending to the various ECU's on the car including the engine ECU. 

    If your dash speedo works, then investigate the speed signal wiring between odometer and the Link ECU. 


    Most JZA80 speedos always read incorrectly due to wheel changes etc. So normally when doing Link ECU install I change the wiring for speed signal to:

    Speed Sensor -> Link ECU -> Dash -> Odometer -> Other non engine ECU's. 

    Doing it this way you can calibrate the speed signal incoming to Link to be accurate, then output a calibrated signal to Dash to get speedo accurate whilst keeping the factory ODO reading accurately and other body ECU's happy (Assuming your dash wiring is stock).

    Cut Pin 2. 

    Run the plug side of Pin 2 to a spare aux output on Link ECU and set as Speedo Out

    Run the loom side of Pin 2 to DI1 (PinA2) on ECU header and calibrate as GP Speed or Wheel speed input

    thanks for that will definitely look into once I figure out why the ecu isn't picking up the signal. To test the wiring from dash to ecu I have run a wire direct from the input side with no change.

    I'm not sure if the DI on the board has potentially failed

    I would expect the speedo has a built-in pull-up if it was originally designed for a hall effect sensor, but does turning on the pull-up make any difference?  

    If that is not the problem then can you put a volt meter on the signal wire going to the ecu (other probe on gound) and either rotate a rear wheel slowly by hand or pull the sensor out and rotate slowly by hand, and tell us what the 2 voltages shown are.  It should step from something close to zero volts and 5 or 12V.  

    I did try the other day changing the pull up to on and no change. 

     

    Testing first with a test light then volt meter there is definitely voltage been given to the ecu. Handbrake on was 1.5v then release handbrake and it changes. It does jump around a bit not sure if thats just the meter though

  4. HI guys,

    Issue with JZA80 supra with plugin ecu and r154 with speed sensor. Car was in storage for a couple years and recently back up running but I noticed that the ECU is now not receiving or reading a speed signal.

    It does have a new speed sensor fitted and I did have to extend the wires going to the sensor. The odd thing is the dash speedo still works fine. My understanding is this sensor feeds into the dash and then to the ecu. I thought it maybe the wiring from dash to ecu so ran a wire from the dash input direct to the ecu but no change.

    I have attached pic of the settings.

     

    They do have common fault where the dash has another speed sensor in it which usually fails and you splice the wire input from the sensor to the output to clear the dash fault and enables the signal to the ecu. I had to do this about 9 years ago and never had any issues since.

     

    Cheers

  5. You cant easily measure the ignition output from the ecu unless you have a scope since its only a very short "pulse".  The ecu has an ignition test function so if it were me I would use that to eliminate as much of the other hardware as I could before suspecting the ecu.  It would be very unlikely to be something wrong with the ecu.  The steps you have taken already with swapping coils etc is a good start, the next test I would do is swap the ignition output wires 1 & 6 at the ecu connector (B57 & B52) then do the ignition test again and see if the fault now moves to 1 or stays at 6.  If #1 then no longer sparks it indicates an ecu problem, if the fault stays with #6 then you have a hardware/wiring issue.

    Thanks Adam should have said have done the ignition test 1 - 5 were clicking and working fine and 6 nothing. But will try your suggestion of swapping out puts at ECU.

  6. Hi Guys

    Car - Toyota Supra JZA80 2jzgte

    ECU - Supralink plugin g4+

    factory coils and igniter

    On my warm down lap (superlap hampton downs 4-12-16) the car randomly began to miss. Have found no.6 coil isnt sparking, move the coils around and still no spark on 6. Have replaced the igniter and still no spark. All wiring continuity and resistance measures fine. What signal should i be measuring at the igniter plug from the ecu? Im thinking it may be an issue with the ecu itself
