FC ignition with megasquirt
Hello everyone, I have been a member for a will but I have not posted in a while. I am putting a megasquirt v3.57 with an MS3X board on my rebuilt 13B. The coils are wired up but I am getting some weird sparks.
I am not getting anything from the leading coil, for this is there any way I can test the ignitor? the coil is fine but for some reason when I hook up 12V and a 12v signal to the wires nothing happens.
For the trailing coils this is where it gets weird. I hooked up the B/Y wires to 12v and when I put a signal to the red wire I get a spark on T1. If I put the signal to the white wire nothing happens. If I connect both the red and white wires to the same signal the T2 coil sparks.
Can anyone give me some advise on how to set this up.
Thank you for your time
Trevor
