Microsquirt problems?
I have a 2005 l33 with twin on3 70mm turbos, 80lbs injectors, running microsquirt. I ran this all of last year and everything ran fine, started it up this year with nothing changed and it would lose sync at around 6200rpm, after a coup;e times running it would lose sync at around 4800rpm, a few times after that 3000rpm is all i could get it to do, and the logs show some extremely off rpms when it was stumbling as high as 17,000 rpm on the logs.
Now it won't show an rpm sync at all when cranking, trigger logger shows nothing, and it obviously won't start. Replaced the crank sensor and it didn't help. re-flashed the firmware and loaded denmahs base tune and still won't rpm sync.
Any help is appreciated, don't know if something got fouled up in my settings somehow or if the micro is bad, or the wheel is bad.

You need to confirm your crank/cam triggers are working fine...which pretty much requires an oscilloscope unless the MS has some sort of trigger diagnostic.
Although you could check to ensure those sensors have correct and stable power supply and ground.
No wiring has changed or anything ?

being a m-squirt he is going to only have crank signal. I would open the m-squirt box open and check the resistors to see if one of them may have come loose and maybe even replace the resistors after all wiring has been double checked.

Absolute first place I'd look. I've seen similar issues, which seemed to be RPM related simply be a battery terminal that felt "snug enough", but not tight. If you can wiggle or pry the leads off the terminals, they're not tight enough. Same with ALL other connections.
Good luck with the fix. This stuff can be so damn frustrating. Hope it's something simple like this.

Crank sensor wiring appears to be good, resistors are all soldered on good, it did have a junk battery on it that I replaced, but it lost all its rpm signal with a good battery in it. Battery terminals aren't the greatest (have new ones on the way) but it was cranking over pretty good

Crank sensors from autobone obeillys and such are junk. GM works great. Get used one if you have to off junkyard motor and try. I had one of theirs and it failed almost instantly. Check your fuse in harness for crank sensor and its wiring to make sure also. Was this a homemade harness or one you bought from EFI. Also make sure your RPM for cranking in firmware is low enough to start.
