Make sure you are running MS2/Extra firmware.

The "B&G" firmware doesn't support the high speed loggers.

I can not figure out why inj1 is not blinking on stim. the fuel calc summary shows two pulse width gauges on, and three and four not on. i had both channels indicated before firmware update. I have tried simultaneous and alternating with no lite on inj1.Could 8pin hei mod affect inj 1 stim led? :?:

The only effect ignition mods could have on injector output unless you've REALLY torched the board would be preventing an RPM signal - the ECU won't fire the injectors after the priming pulse unless it has RPM.

We have a point test for the injector drivers here if you are concerned they are damaged.

Attach the MSQ tune file you are using and someone will check the configuration.

Just check but I think you have loaded microsquirt code onto your ms2. That's what it looks like given your programmable output options being Aled, Wled etc.

Yes, that MSQ is from Microsquirt firmware. That is incorrect for an Megasquirt-2 (MS2). That needs the Megasquirt-2 version selected when loading firmware.

Is that on the stim or on the car? Probably be best if you could do a datalog and post that up. There is a guide in the "forum help page" link up in the forums header, at the top of the page. If you are just on the stim it is easy to have a pot like IAT or CLT or MAP way off running condition which messes up the PW as every sensor plays a part in that final PW.
