troubleshooting
1)
The receiver signal is not
displayed (display "00")
Possible causes: broken wire, missing ground connection
=> check the
wiring, if separate batteries for POWER SPARK and receiver are used, the
negative poles
of both batteries must
be clamped together. => see
p.12
2)
Engine does not start, no
display of speed at startup
Possible causes: broken wire / defect speed sensor
=> check the
correct function of the speed sensor system using the menu item "CS" => see
p.38
3)
Sparking at the speed sensor
Possible cause: insufficient ground connection at the engine => see 4a)
4)
Engine does not run smoothly
/ stutters //
display shows insteady engine speeds //
display shows “8.8.” and engine stops suddenly
Possible causes:
a)
insufficient ground connection at the engine
=> see
p.11,p.12
=> check the
continuity of the ground connection from the battery minus to the spark
plug. The current
induced into the spark
plug must be able to flow unhindered through the cylinder head / engine
housing to the battery
minus pole. A connection of the battery minus pole as close as possible to
the thread of the spark
plug is to be preferred. Anodized parts or insulating paper seals etc. can
make the current flow
more difficult or completely prevent it. By means of a suitable screw
connection, ensure that a
low-resistance electrically conductive connection exists
(=> measure with a multimeter, the
resistance should be less than 1 Ohm)
b)
wrong ignition coil =>
see
p.13
c)
spark
plugs without resistor =>
see
p.13
d)
ignition coil too close to sensor
=> see
p.5e)
unfavorable cable routing
=> see
p.5
5)
Engine does not
reach high speeds
Possible causes:
a) speed
limiter active =>
increase speed limiter value
p.32
b) insufficient
ground connection of
engine => see 4a) above
c)
wrong ignition energy selected
=> see
p.35
d)
excessive
pre-ignition angle at high speeds
=> decrease pre-ignition see
p.27
6)
No noticable effect of custom ignition maps
Possible causes: => Reinitialization of maps required, see below "known
errors ..."
Errors in the manual and in
software
■
affects all
software versions from 2.0 to 2.3, fixed in V2.3 and later
■ update
of custom map after parameter change
If a custom ignition map is used
(selection by menu "C-") and then a custom ignition map is created
or displayed in the menu "Cc", the map will
be stored correctly. However a takeover of the changed map
into the running operation will be only
performed after (re-)selecting the map in the menu "C-".
Additional information in the operating instructions
After a parameter of the custom map has been changed, the map has
to be reinitialized. To do this,
select the "C-" map menu again and
(re-)select the custom map (10..14).
■
Override
of ignition map "0" after parameter change / display of custom map
symptom
(bug in software)
If the ignition map "0" is active and afterwards custom maps
are changed / viewed, the changed
parameters of the custom map will be taken
for the running operation instead of the parameters from
map "0".
solution
If ignition map "0" is selected and custom maps are changed, the
ignition map "0" must be reselected
in the "C-" menu.
