HaveYouSeenAWizardSleep Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Hey! Just finished wiring up my G4X Monsoon for my Series 4 13B on my FC RX7. Wiring was very straightforward and I made sure to double check all the leads going to the ECU through many continuity tests to ensure that I had a strong signal through the I/O. It is important to note that my battery is fairly drained and I’ve been testing this out by jumping it with my other car. I have hooked up the TPS, Injectors, Idle Air Control (BAC valve), injectors, ignition coils, internal MAP, Wideband, and CAS. I currently do not have a CLT and IAT hooked up but that’s irrelevant to this (or I think so). I have configured by CAS accordingly to the help guide in the PC Link software alongside with all my other sensors. I’m using the S6 basemap as a canvas for my basemap. When cranking my engine I have a solid connection through trigger 2 at all times which is great but it picks up trigger 1 for a split second and will give me an RPM reading then shuts right off, increasing my trig 1 error count as I crank. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! Video: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 You are on old firmware too, so update to the latest as there have been several changes to trigger strategies in more recent versions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaveYouSeenAWizardSleep Posted August 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Wiring is correct, even went as crazy to re-pin and re-wire the CAS. CAS is fine as it has always been working on the previous setup anyways. Never touched or altered it. Could it be that my battery is grounded to the chassis and not directly to the engine block?

HaveYouSeenAWizardSleep Posted August 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Update: swapped the batteries, grounded my battery to the engine and the chassis, even swapped the trigger grounds, and swapped the trigger input wires. Running out of ideas at this point, not sure what else it could be. The photo is the result of me swapping around the trigger wiring.

Adamw Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 I suspect your CAS voltage may not be quite reaching your arming thresholds. Can you change both trig 1 & 2 arming thresholds to match below and try again: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
