Ian=2C Gary=2C Bud=2C
Ian was right about the sensors. I used the only consistently wrong value o
f 10.0 volt with the engine not runnunig as a refernce to work with.
I pulled my 24 pin connector apart=2C which disconnects all probes=2C and t
he volt display was good at 12.5. So now I just had to identify which wire
was the culprit.
I used one jumper and connected one wire at a time=2C until I came to the C
HT=2C which is pin4 on the EIS side. To be 100% sure I cut the wire=2C reco
nnected the plug and ran the engine. Everything looks good except for the c
ht of course.
One more question: Is the faulty part most likely the VDO probe or the two-
stranded wire ? The two wires are crimped onto a ring-connector=2C and are
hence shorted. I don't really understand theprinciple=2C but are the two wi
res necessary ? Where can I get a VDO probe quickly ? motorcycle or car par
ts shop ?
The mind boggles at the software in this EIS unit. It scrambled all importa
nt parameters. My battery move was purely coincidental.
I think our lives would be a lot more complicated if it wasn't for this for
um.
Thanks again for all your help.
