How often do you guys have to reset? I have the cyberdyne gauge wired with it, and it would get all crazy all of the sudden. I hit my reset button fairly often at least once every couple days. I make sure I do this when I am on overrun and the engine is just pumping air. Once I reset it it reads normal. Is this just me or do you guys also experience the same problem.

Interesting.
My LC1 was resetting sometimes when in boost and I thought it was the sensor overheating. Then I lost coms with the m/s ecu and the guage was showing a com error, all electrical cheks OK. LC1 is now winging its way back across the pond for investigation, only 1 month and about 200 miles old :( .

I have had some problems with mine too. It would just be "dead" all the sudden or never start up when the car starts. The red LED was just off completely.

I thought it was a wiring issue so I redid my wiring to the box. No difference.

One thing that I think it might be though is low voltage: my car has a generator (not an alternator) and it is down to around 10v when idling after being off for a few days. Megasquirt is hooked up directly through the battery I believe although I guess I should double-check.

Would 10V cause the LC1 to shut off and turn back on, or not come on at all?
