99 Ms2 No Spark While Cranking, Sparks in Test mode
Hey guys so I'm trying to shoot down why my car won't start. I've got it down to not getting spark while cranking. I thought it may have been something going on with my cops but I just went through the output test mode and the coils fire that way. I switched the cam and crank sensors from my brother's nb and have had the same issues. Maybe some relay gone astray?? Thanks in advance.

Just tried getting a composite log but I couldn't get it to show any events at all. Tried the tooth and trigger as well but they are showing nothing while I'm cranking. And the car was running and while I was driving the engine slowly started to cut out once every minute and it just happened more and more frequent to where it was completely undriveable so I got it home and now it won't start. I changed out the cam and crank sensors and still no start..

what in the world? I didn't touch the cam/crank input wiring and that that was syncing great on my bench before I sent it back.
Is it possible you opened it up in your old TS project without first updating the new firmware I loaded and somehow corrupted it or something?
so you are able to connect to it no issues right now right? can you upload the msq thats currently loaded on it so I can take a look and see if something got messed up?
that doesn't make any sense!

well, losing sync and losing connection is two different things.
losing sync suggests the cam/crank signals are dropping out and the MS doesn't know the RPM and fails to spark.
losing connection means your laptop cant communicate with the MS.

it should. crank for about 15-20 seconds and save one out and attach.
I'm really confused as to why youre not seeing activity, I know I didn't move those wires, there was no need obviously, and I was syncing for hours on the bench.
