Voltage drop on pin 23
Posted: Mon Apr 07, 2008 10:49 am
When I messure with the scope from pin 23 to ground with engine running, I messure spikes of voltagedrops on a few ms!
I have had the pinconnector out to solder, and the other end is also soldered and connectet directly to batteryground!
It looks like a bad wire to me, but the Microsquirt and the wirehairness is brand new!
I have made a print from the scope:

One other strage thing, when I messuer the amps with the scope for the coils, it only use 2! I have tryed to change the dwell from 3 to 4ms but still only 2 amps! 'the coils are stock 3ohms.
On a normal car, I would say the use 6amps to charge!
