Rob, that line is in the program...I tried it again, still no action to the cdi. Did anyone test this on a timer and cdi board?
I tried 3 different chips and all same results...wonder what is going on..
I tried adding the test function back into his code also, adding that line and the first few test routine lines..got no errors compiling it, but still no functions. It seems to be going into a dead program loop. Ran it in the compiler to watch execution of each line..it stops after line 10 or 11... with a message "declared variable "i" but not called." I see the line it is declared..
