Troubleshooting 

 
 
If the PWR (Green) LED on the side of the unit is on, all is okay. 
 
If the PWR (Green) LED on the side of the unit is flashing continuously, the unit is warming 
up.  The sensor requires approximately 30 seconds of warm-up time after the unit is turned 
on. 
 
If the ERR (Red) LED is flashing 1, 2, 4, 5, or 6 times per second (see table on page 6), the 
UEGO sensor is broken.  Of course, this will occur if the sensor is not connected. 
 
Sometimes one or more of these codes will occur within 1 minute of power-up.   This is okay 
as long as they do not remain active after 1 minute. 
 
If  the  ERR  (Red)  LED  is  flashing  3  times  per  second,  the  battery  voltage  is  either  too  low 
(less than 11 V) or too high (greater than 28 V).  If this occurs, immediately stop the engine 
and supply the correct battery voltage to the control module. 
 
If the CAL POT cannot be turned counterclockwise to where the CAL (Yellow) LED is off 
then the sensor is bad. 
 
If the F/A Monitor outputs erroneous values, one of three conditions exists: 
 

1.

 

The  unit  is  being  confused  by  noisy  power  or  operating  in  an  electrically  noisy 
environment.    In  some  situations,  a  timing  light  might  create  a  noise  problem.  
Keeping the control module and its wiring harness away from the engine's ignition 
wires will help avoid this source of electrical noise. 

 
2.

 

For  the  F/A1000  only,  the  ground  wire  on  the  wiring  harness  is  not  attached 
directly to the ground at the vehicle’s battery.  If you connect a single wire from 
the wiring harness ground to the vehicle’s battery, a large voltage drop will occur 
across that wire and cause the analog output ground at the BNC connector to be 
elevated  above  battery  ground.    And  since  battery  ground  is  often  the  engine’s 
data  acquisition  ground,  if  you  hook  the  analog  output  ground  at  the  BNC 
connector  to  the  ground  at  the  data  acquisition  system  then  you  will  cause  a 
current  loop  through  the  ground  of  the  data  acquisition  system  to  the  vehicle 
battery. 

 

3.

 

The  F/A  Monitor  must  be  returned  to  the  factory  for  repair.    There  are  no  user-
repairable  components  inside  the  control  module.    The  warranty  is  void  if  the 
control  module  is  opened  or  wiring  harness  is  modified.    Contact  ECM  before 
returning the F/A Monitor to the factory.
