Mazda 13B Trigger problem

[Steffen]

Hi.

I am not getting any RPM signal, I am running only 1 Trigger sensor with 3 wires ( Black / White and bare wire).

I have connected:

Black and Bare Wire - Sensor ground.

White - Trigger 1.

Is that correct? And is there any changes to make since its only one trigger?

You will want to follow this. Are you running an aftermarket sensor of the factory sensor? 

[Steffen]

Its an aftermarket. Electromotive trigger kit.

It says in a comment i read that the Trigger 2 had to be sett to OFF, but I can not find a setting for it..

[Rich RDE]

Is this the 60-2 newer RX8 trigger pattern? If so just set to RX8. You can set multi tooth and then in trig 2 set sync as none.

RX8 and FD3S reluctors look identical externally but have reversed polarity, this is crucial for proper engine operation.
As the FD sensor is installed, the positive pin is on the right side (looking at engine).

I think the electromotive units are either 36-1 or 60-2

But for the trigger configuration you will need to set the mode as Multi-Tooth Missing

Enter the tooth count 36 or 60 (need to count the teeth including the missing)

Set number of missing teeth (2 or 1)

Then in the trigger 2 menu go to sync mode and select none.

Thanks for the replay. Its a 60-2 tooth.

I will test it out when I come home from work

[Steffen]

I have tried the changes and still no RPM.. 

Is the wiring correct?? 

ECU settings is:

Trigger 1 type - reluftor

Trigger filtering - level 1

multi-tooth posn - crank

Tooth count - 60

Tooth missing - 2

And the trigger 2 in noe sync mode.

Post a trigger capture. Is this the RX8 sensor? The wiring could be reversed if so. Pull up the Run time tab and look at trigger sync error.

Its a electromotive MAG sensor. Tested with a multimeter. 

I am not getting any reading in the Trigger Scope either 

[Rich RDE]

Oh yes ok.... Did you check the polarity of the sensor? Making sure the wires are wired correctly? You getting any interference with other high power wires and the signal wire not shielded properly? Maybe the air gap is causing an issue? Filter set correctly? The bare wire is the shield it should not be connected to the ground wire. Try running the RX8 trigger selection within the ECU.

I have tried every combination...

I am lost right now. 

Maybe I have to get a hall sensor and try that one...

Checked air gap, checked filter settings, rewired so the shielded wire is not connected to ground wire, and checked polarity? Can you post your base file? Or PM me with it so I can take a look. Also post a log file trying to start it with your settings. I hope I can help.
