Will Not Start

Been thinking again If there is a wiring fault/ or component fault it may have blown some thing on the 2nd ecu as well.

 

Logic would say it would work at 1st then fail. Or fail when switched on.

 

It would be worth chatting to the test / repair people still.

 

If you take the cover off in the house with no other smells around not when cooking dinner and give a good sniff inside looking for a burn smell

Then look for blk components if none pos a track on the PCB may need a magnifying glass.

 

This is what happened to me on the rolling road the lambda sen shorted out the 12v heater to the sen v5 and burnt a track on the ecu.

 

Ask test people is it a full 12 v sys or do some sensors work at less?

I think I may have found the problem.

 

I took the dizzy out and connected it up, when it I turned it by hand the injectors didn't fire so I put it on a drill and used that to spin it up.

The injectors fired but only when it was up to a fair speed. Slow it down and they continued to fire.

But spinning it up slowly, like cranking, they didn't fire at all until up to speed.

 

Tomorrow starts the hunt for a Hall Effect dizzy!

Got the Dizzy(thanks Steve)connected it up and guess what, no difference!

 

Well actually I was 1/2 expecting that, Had a long conversation with Richard Hall (another thank you).

He said Cant be the dizzy as you are getting a spark, try the throttle position sensor.

 

Sure enough fully closed it is reading 3.5 volts and should be 0.5 volts.

I have now disconnected it completely and it starts first time every time. Runs a bit rough though.

 

I have scoured the local scrapyards and nothing.

I have Googled it and the only websites I can find that show up are in Poland.

 

Has anyone out there in Hoodie land got one beer tokens waiting.
