well here i am with another weird issue....
93 Rx7 rotary....i can't get this thing to start to save my life, if you look at the log you should notice the sync counter is constantly cycling, i have tried a bunch of things to remedy this issue and seem to be at a lose, thanks to anyone with a idea, i have no issue with checking, double checking, and then checking again so lets hear those ideas. while cranking this thing does really want to start, its about as close to a start but just won't have it.

Re: sync counter constant cycling
That is generally a sign of a problem with the crank or cam input. Can you post up a composite log of what's going on? This will give more info about those signals.

Re: sync counter constant cycling
thanks Matt, i don't know how many times you've help me, but i can't thank you enough. Mucho Respecto!!!
its kinda funny because i also have a fc rx7 with the exact issue but that one will start. i'm also back at that 96 bronco so i'll probably be emailing you about that one again in the near future.

Re: sync counter constant cycling
OK. What's going on is that you are getting some extra noise pulses in the CMP signal - but the current code is able to distinguish the noise from the real signal and maintain sync. The lost sync counts up so that you know something is happening.

Re: sync counter constant cycling
So would the noise filter take care of it? I have never had to use the filter and I did try it on this car, I usually just beat up the wiring until I get it working and I won't lie I used the factory wiring up to the point it passes through the fire wall so I'm thinking I should just run my own wires.

Re: sync counter constant cycling
It's not a huge deal, but you may want to try using the VR trim pots to clean up the last bit of noise.
