Can anyone with a PC3 fitted tell me, when you turn on the ignition, does some of the green lights on the PC3 light up.
Canna get my track bile to start, but noticed that there are none of the green lights on the left side lighten up, when i turn on the ignition.
Checked my mates FirePlace, and when the ignition is turned on, the lights do there merry dance, then settle at the bottom.

When you move the throttle with the ignition on, not running, thg green lights should increase with throttle position.
Hope this helps and if you want me to check anything else let me know.

Sounds like you're not getting a signal to the pissy.
Start by confirming the battery connections to the pissy and also the loom connections.

All connections and fuses seem ok.
Get the feelling bike is not getting fuel. No lights on PC3, so when throttle moved, see nothing on module.
The bike is getting spark, and the plugs are not wet when the plugs are removed. (Am i right is saying the PC3 does not control spark - without ignition module fitted. PC3 only working the fuel). Plugs pretty black when removed (lean).
Fuel pump priming and working.
Think the PC3 is not telling the injectors to operate.
Fukking Eyetie bikes.

Thought about it some more and the lights moving with the throttle position would only confirm the throttle position sensor is working. If there are no lights on the pissy then it would suggest its not getting powered up.

Does the bike work with the PC3 disconnected?

Maybe time to try a different path to get it working?

That is one of the “off†switches
But then finding the “on†switch is a real bugger
