Hello all im building my MS2 to run a 2jzge motor with dizzy. I have had a issue where im not getting power to half of the board ( LED's wont light cant load on MS2 mother board). I used the Stim 2.2 and a volt meter to test all my connections and i cant pin point any problems of dead diodes or blown capacitors (C22). I checked for bridged connects also and nothing was touching. went back and checked DB9 and im getting 5v there the proto area is also getting 5v. I would like to get someone in the Virginia area to take a look at the board to see if i missed something witch i have checked 9 times now.

Thanks,
Chef

Diagnosis-by-LED can be a dangerous thing - there is no power on LED; they only light when the firmware commands them to. And when there is no firmware, they won't be commanded to.

I've got a checklist if you want to examine this more closely. But if you need another pair of eyes to go over this one, Peter Florance runs a good MegaSquirt repair service and is in your state.

So after sitting down and rechecking everything i tried to load the frame ware. I got this message:

Did you have the boot jumper on the daughter card in place across both pins?

Yes sir.

Got it set. My Laptop couldn't do it had to go to a older XP desktop to set everything up. Thank you for the help!
