LC-1 dropped

[mr.prick]

CLMAF.efi
In this log you will see (frame 7610) for no reason my LC-1
stops reporting both serial and analog (AD1).
After pausing the log, I rebooted the L-C1 (restarted car) and
the LC-1 came back to life.
This is the second time this happened and because both serial and
analog stopped I am confident something is up with the LC-1,
but I am wondering if this is what some people saw with the bunk firmware
that was going around or maybe someone else had an LC-1 that did this.

I won't even waist my time on the Innovate forum.

my last 3 LC-1s have given me problems..
Thinking about trying a PLX..

[mr.prick]

I' ve had it for 2.5 years with no problems.
I find it odd that it cuts out then after a reboot it is fine.
Maybe I had a voltage spike and it went into a protection mode.
I did a free air and I'll see if that helps.

something similar to this happened to my lc1 too. I was driving along and stopped at a gas station to fill up... while filing up, I set up my V2 to BBL, as soon as I started up the truck my XD16 gauge showed "-.-.-" on the display and my lc1 no longer responds... so my question is, DID my V2 kill my LC1... this happened on last Monday and since then I have not gotten my LC1 to respond

There was a problem with a past firmware.
Don't use the V2 to do a free air calibration,
the bad firmware caused problems with that.
Make sure you are up to date. (look in my sig)
I have not had this happen since I did a free air cal.

I had what you describe happen 2 or 3 times long before the beta firmware
came out. In my case, I think it resulted from heat in the car's tunnel, where my LC1 lives. That was a common issue for me.

However, I did recently lose an LC1 to the beta firmware (was an immediate failure once hooked up to V2 ), though when I pulled it out was in pretty bad shape and just replaced it anyway.

If yours lasted 2.5 years, maybe you should send it back to innovate so they can put it in a display case. When the beta firmware got mine, it was over a year old and working ok too.

LOL
This was the only problem I have had with it,
and a free air cal seems to have cured it.
From everything I have read I am lucky, I am even running the new firmware
from Innovate that everyone has problems with.
I think the secret to my success is that I use the power and ground
from the rear NBO2 sensors and most disagree with wiring it that way.
Too bad I can't trade it for a lottery ticket.

FYI
someone posted a possible cure for a bricked
Innovate WBO2 after the V2 firmware.
IIRC he loaded the WBO2 with the newer Innovate firmware.

Prick I had the same issues on mine - this is almost 2 years back now but after updating to firmware 1.0(whatever) it happend too frequently, I dropped back to the 0.9 firmware and it was much more stable.

Ditch the LC-1 and get something else, they are just too unreliable - accurate but unreliable.

[mr.prick]

The sensor I have now has lasted longer than the other 2 I've had.
When the sensor gets iffy the LC-1 drops out and it's time for a new one.
