Hi,
Just changed my Phase sensor on my Cosworth Dizzy, I have connected the Red Wire to the + on the Dizzy Connector. Is this correct.?
The old phase was completely knackered and had no shielding on the wires.



thanks,
Manoj

 

Thats ok

 

Correct.

Do the new phase sensor wires last a bit longer than the old sensors.Just out of interest i take it when these wires on old sensors start to crack and if the wires touch i take it that it will cause running problems.

 

Yes will cause problems, yes the new ones have MUCH better insulation that lasts.
I THINK it only senses the phase position for starting but once running could be disconnected, but if it can't tell phase it will overfuel enormously.

Yes and no !

It depends on what ecu and how the sesnor fails while the engine is running.
Way too many combinations for a sunday with a hangover to explain.

 

You people know your stuff and are a credit to this site.

 

I don't know if I ever did it with my w/m ecu but with my present one, it's totally ok, and continues to run perfect even when disconnected and left like that until you start again.
