Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
My LSE installation had a very different setup, it had circuit board mounted to the front of the crankcase,, so I don't really know what I'm talking about here. But, it does look like your mounting

Re: Flight report
Nice Jay!
Keep reporting, it makes a difference to those still building, and all of us that would liked to have flown today.
We have had some of the windiest weather I can remember. 3+ weeks of this

Flight report
Hi All,
Had not been up in my Q for a couple weeks, so I thought I would take advantage of a nice calm, cool, crystal-clear fall day to do a short local flight. I have recently finished the final

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
Thanks for the pic.
Makes sense.
Maybe a part revision miss-match for the kit you received?
Maybe a sensor location problem within the sensor housing?
At least you know what needs to happen now to get

Re: CFG
There have been various W&B sheets loaded to the Files section of the Q-list site. You might want to check there.

Hi does anyone have an XL spreadsheet/program for checking our CFG at various loads and are there any graphs extending the weight say up to 1300lb all up

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
Leif,
When you drilled the holes to the oval shape, so you could move the sensor, what did you do (if anything) to prevent the sensor from vibrating or coming loose in any way and sliding down to the

Close up pic of your actual sensor and wheel installation when you have a moment please.

Hey Anthony,
The vertical and horizontal alignment mentioned is referring to the lines on the mini sensor and the magnet plate lining up to one another. Once you realize the true middle of where the

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
I am following this topic with interest as I had experience with electronic ignition in the past.
Yes Klaus will be able to tell you if there is other test points to track down the problem source.

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
This is all very good information/findings for public distribution.
Seems like the free magnet passing over the sensor should be a recommended early trouble shooting procedure. Maybe even a bench

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
When I installed mine on my EZ I had to slightly modify the sensor bracket to position the sensor correctly. Remove the sensor and with the system powered, just carefully move it over the magnets in

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
Why doesn’t Klaus simply send you the correct brackets??
Seems that would have solved a lot of cost and aggravation.

Re: Electronic Ignition Install - No Spark from Coils
Thanks Corbin. Understood. I had the same issue ( which I described way back in this thread) - the bracket fitted the engine OK, but unless the sensor was perfectly lined up, no sparks.

Yes, in fact, a local IA recommended that approach as well. I’d certainly would be easiest.
