No RPM on PFC

I dont get spark and i traced it to not getting RPM in apexi power fc. I tested the car with original ECU and i got spark so is my PFC busted? And if its busted is it repairable?

Is the PFC new to you, or has it been in the car a long time and it just stopped working?

Will the car start and run fine with the stock ECU, and nothing with the PFC?

I do know the PFC is more sensitive to the CAS trigger, if the wheel is bent or damaged it can have problems the stock ECU will not.

I bought the PFC used from running car and i managed to run diagnostic run (30 with different loads) and after that it just died and didnt get spark anymore

I tested for spark with stock ecu only. I prolly cant run the car with stock ecu because i have changed to single turbo and have 1200cc secondaries and rats nest is removed as well as air pump, ac and ps. But i could try if it starts and idles with stock ecu.

And im somewhat familiar with PFC, i know what ist does and what i can do with it.

Can you run a log while cranking?

There are a lot of people here who know a lot about the PFC. Maybe they could see something from the log.
