Ran into a little snag lately.
The Talon will not crank or start. The fuel pump has power and runs, the starter has 12v. power to it but the signal wire to the solenoid does not power up. The ignition switch and clutch switch seems to work because I can toggle the fuel pump on and off with the clutch switch and the key in the start position. So in my mind that leaves the starter relay. Does anyone have a spare starter relay that I can try out? -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo

QUOTE (natedogg @ Apr 8 2008, 02:42 PM) Another thing you might try is a different EPROM chip. It would have to be flashed to your specs, but it might be safer than putting another ECU in there with the danger of electrical problems. I'm almost positive the ECU will be fine since the car is still running and you don't see any signs of fryage on yours, but just thought I'd bring up another suggestion. I have an extra EPROM chip that you are more than welcome to. Its just flashed to 450cc injectors right now, but I'm sure NC could reflash it to whatever you need. Thanks Natedogg. Fortunately NC left me like 6 EPROMS preflashed for different settings. I have swapped the EPROM out for the next level up numerous times with no changes in the symptoms to date. (I was thinking the same way as you are though.) -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
