Lanos 1.6 (VEMS and turbo on the way)

No i have 8 high output ignitions, i told katalin on the vems shop that we would modify it and she confirmed that she shipped it with the 8 option, but i'll wire it that way just in case and see, i also checked the coil pack and the ground and power are fine
they are just not getting a signal from vems, i'll the rpm limit first and try, i set the rpm limit in the settings but not in the soft rpm limiters, so if not then i'll re-wire it to 34 and 36 and i'll update you with how things go

ok so i configured the soft rpm limiters and tried with no hope of starting
then i re wired the ignition to pin 34 and 36 and modified the ignition outputs accordingly and again there is no signal from vems to the coil packs

can you record a log and post it online?

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 06:27:39 AM

sure this is a datalog i took now but this wasn't while cranking, i just have 2 things on mind, when you load the msq file you will notice 7 errors all related to h2 table and 1 for boost controller, and also on the main vems screen, there is no spark angle!!!

well here is the datalog untill i get one while cranking

gunni · February 11, 2009, 06:58:54 AM

ThatÂ´s because your ignition angle at cranking is 0 degress.

What where you doing when you did the log?

The ecu resets as the voltage goes down.

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 07:03:43 AM

oh that was just the switch for the vems power moved out of its place so it cut power and brought it back, but fixed that

i really don't know what's wrong

gunni · February 11, 2009, 07:28:37 AM

A log from the cranking is next to do :)

Have you physically tested the coils?

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 07:37:46 AM

yes, my coil has 4 wires
1 ground
1 +12v supply
1 coil1 signal
1 coil2 signal

i connected a test bulb to ground and 12v supply and it worked great
then i connected it to the ground and to each of the coil signal wires while cranking and it never lit up

i'll get you a log first thing in the morning because i really have to get some sleep, it's 3:22 am here ;D

Can you download your config as described here: http://195.159.109.134/vemsuk/forum/index.php/topic,120.0.html
Send it in an email to me

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 06:14:54 PM

i tried doing that but it always told me that there is some kind of error with generate-config.bat

gunni · February 11, 2009, 07:16:57 PM

COM port selected properly?

rob@vems.co.uk · February 11, 2009, 07:20:39 PM

Some kind of error could be anything - if you can post here what the error says we might have a better time supporting this and moving forward.
As long as the download config has worked there will be a new copy of config.txt and tables.txt in the config folder, just email these to me please and I'll take a look.

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 07:48:19 PM

ok i tried again and it worked flawlessly, i haven't changed anything, well rob i emailed you the config file and gunni here is the log while cranking, i took 3 cranks as you will see

rob@vems.co.uk · February 11, 2009, 09:22:00 PM

What I'll do is put the configs and tables on my test bench, and see what I can find.
Then either send you the configs and tables back or an MSQ file.

bob3825 · February 11, 2009, 09:45:14 PM

ok great rob, i really appreciate the help mate
