spark A blink still very weak,,B and C blink stronger
6 cyl engine ran well,,with wasted spark
but due to a setting error [outputs a, b, c]
I burned the V921 spark of A
when new bip 373 made it to spark A
The engine was running again but switches off for a second and then runs back further,,,,,,Now I noticed that spark A weak flashes
and after starting a time, spark A not blinking
I then replaced transitor Q6 ,,,this brought no improvement
when I replaced the U1 processor and new software in new setting,,,,,this did not bring any improvement
resistors I checked all good for spark A
also completely disconnected spark,,,, no improvement
the LED spark A keeps flashing weak
what could be more broken on the board v3 ?????
Please help help,, what I need to do

Do you have the bip373 tab well insulated from the heatsink/ground?
Find the Manuals up top under Quick links: Manuals.

Re: spark A blink still very weak,,B and C blink stronger
hello
yes I am well insulated
I have the spark portion is now completely disconnected from the Megasquirt
if I let crank the engine ,,,then the 3 LEDs flash to the forfeited ,,,only spark A flashes very weak
If I select the setting in [outputs], only A spark, then flashing spark A strongly
I measured the voltage is 5V present
the magician knows the solution,,,,,,,help

It could be sync-loss or something. MS1 has no concept of that.

hello james
indeed, the LED flashing not in accordance with a rhythm
it could be the result of the clock ?,,,,,I can build on a single clock
or you have a better idea ??

Post up the MSQ you are using. What are you using to test the unit? Does not look like it is in the car.
Find the Manuals up top under Quick links: Manuals.

Re: spark A blink still very weak,,B and C blink stronger
Sorry I did not see you had replied. I was trying to establish how you were getting a tach in signal and what type as that is the area that seemed likely for the fault. Good to see you successfully traced it out on your own.
