LC-1 Why cant I get a signal?

Sorry me again.
I installed a LC-1 controller and wide band sensor to my car but can't get a signal to the mega squirt. It's one of the later controllers so doesn't need a resister,but I've tried it with and without.
I've tried Innovate 0-5 setting on the controller program and the megasquirt and the Innovate default on both.
Any ideas and things to try very welcome.

I feel that overtime and a rolling road session is on the cards.

Try running it through another calibration cycle, this fixed a very similar problem I had when I first installed mine. (As per my same comment on the megasquirt _uk forum...!)

Listen, mine didn't work until I plugged the unused output with the little 1/8" resistor plug that came with the unit. I know you mentioned that you don't need to do that, but mine was pretty new and I had to plug it. have you at least tried it? worth a try imho.

Do you mean the little adapter looking thing? did you plug it into the In or out side?

I will give it a try.

RTFM!!

I would read and let you know but mine is in the car a work. My instructions definitely say which side to plug it into.
If you don't have them let me know and I will have a look tomorrow.





Summer's here!!!!

Just read it now online. The F-ing manual, as TangoMan puts it, says to place the plug on the IN side. Insert the plug in the IN port and it should work.
