I figure this might be the place to post about the issue i am having.Now what i am using is a ford EDIS coil pack v6 and then to im using a bosch 203 ignition module from a 960 Volvo which this module has 3 channels and my coil pack has 3 igniters as well.Now the issue i am having is getting RPM signal while cranking but if you look at my data logs it shows i have a signal but its all over the place.Now mind you i have been messing with the basic/advanced settings in tuner studio and so on and i manged to melt the module to a point were its ruined lol.

Now i've got another module on its way here so id like to figure out what the settings should be in ts so i won't melt another module down.It seems to me its a mix of different settings and experimenting but all in theory this ignition system should work.And i have a total of 3 ignition channels since i ran a 4.7k resistor on the pin 17 and 28 like its listed on getting that channel to open up to a ignition channel.Now im using the stock lh2.2 VR sensor and everything seems like its working.But without a proper rpm signal the rest of the system will appear dead and yet i get the fuel pumps kicking on with the key on but during cranking i get nothing.But i think its all related to the lack of rpm signal.

I'll post my logs below and my tune file if anyone wants to take a gander at this id greatly appreciate it.I am on my own to a point and in the dark as this type of ignition set up has never been used/or i've never found any info to go off using the bosch 203 module with the ford edis v6 coil pack.I've also had to make my own diagrams on making this system work and everything looks spot on.3 signals from the ecu to the module then to the coil pack everything looks right.

B&G code has a maximum of 2 spark outputs on a MicroSquirt. The MS2/Extra code allows up to 4 spark outputs, but has a separate forum at MSExtra.com.

Sorry lol i didn't know that i could upload files directly.I'll remember that next time.

So i am guessing i need to update my firmware to something from ms extra perhaps?Hmm.

I'll see what i can find and scoop up.Would make sense since im using the standard updated firmware but id still only be set up for the standard 2 channel when i need a total of 3 channels.

Thanks =D

Edit:I found the ms2 extra firmware updates and ill apply those next time i mess with the car.Hopefully this will steer things in the right direction.

Well after moving my settings over from my old tune and cleaning the grounds up in the engine bay along with replacing the module.I decided id try a test fire and see what would happen.Low and behold i have combustion and i can smell fuel being burned and it pops over consistently.Now i think its just a matter of getting the settings dialed in.But hell this is a big step in the right direction.Next time i do a crank cycle ill record the datalog then post it along with my tune file.

Things are looking up! =D
