so i have a new problem, showed up out of nowhere.
v3 board, ms1-extra.
two wierd issues, one is maybe nothing, the other is a real pain in the ass:
1. with ignition on if i unplug the harness cable the vb921s get really hot, really fast.
they are only connected to the ms board at the top of the led resistors, as it's show in the msextra documentation. ground and power (from coils) comes in seperately.
2. all of a sudden i get no rpm when cranking, i had the vr sensor grounded to the correct pin on the harness and working well for a while, nothing all of a sudden.
i find tht if i kind of rub the wire on a chassis ground and hold it there i get a bit of a signal intermittently, then i can rub it around until the signal comes in and it'll start/run ... while i hold it there of course... the best part is that my cable reset issue has returned with this configuration ... so i'm thinking maybe somethin is groundin that shouldn't be, any suggestions?
