I'm wiring a Toyota motor - a Tacoma 2RZ, which has factory cam and crank VR sensors. I understand the setup, but I've never done VR before.
My current issue is that I've got nothing in the composite logger while cranking. No pulses indicated that I can tweak. I've looked at both "tooth" and "cam" signals in the logger - and looked at the log file. No signals indicated.
My guess is that I'm doing something wrong that's pretty basic.
I have basic sensor logging. I'm not connected to coils and not trying to fuel injectors. Just making sure my inputs are right.
I've verified the following:
1) Basic ignition settings for VR (36-2 missing tooth) - Cam sensor on MS3x:

2) I verified the unit was setup for VR per the manual (http://www.msextra.com/doc/pdf/html/MS3 ... e-1.3.html):
- P1 jumped 1-2
J1 jumped 3-4
I adjusted the pots at R52 and R56 7 turns to the left.
3) Wiring on the MS3 connector:
- VR sensor is wired to pin 24 (positive)
VR negative is wired to pin 1
4) Did a tone trace from my VR sensor connector to the MS3 connector. No problem. Verified continuity.
5) With a DVM:
- I get what appears to be pulsed voltage at the VR sensor connector while cranking.
I get what appears to be pulsed voltage at the MS3 connector, pin 24 when cranking.
6) Tried several variations on the composite logger, making sure I was cranking for 10 seconds AND logging to a file. The logs contain no data beyond version and typical stuff. Cam isn't logging either..
The only thing that I'm doing that might be a little odd, the shields of the VR cam sensor, VR crank sensor, and the MS3 wiring harness (provides a shield) are all tied together.
Even if I wired this thing backwards, I should see a signal on the logger? Again, I suspect I'm doing something pretty basic wrong.. Anyone got ideas?
