How about letting us know how to activate the injector and spark plug test.
My EC2 system was purchased about 12 months ago. Will it have this capability?

Thanks,

These also tests that the EC2 is basically on-line and functioning but not a complete diagnostic. Only spinning the engine (or the crank angle sensor by itself) and watching for spark at the plugs will test the sensor inputs in the field.

More diagnostics are planned for the future as I have time.

Tracy included in the newer models of the EC2 a feature that you can
trigger the coils and get the plugs firing without the engine turning.
Just press the red button on the EC2 panel and watch your spark plugs
fire. No need to crank the whole engine for that.
Tracy can explain it better.
