I powered up the spirit to modify the govenour. the lights on my satellites are blinking as if they were trying to bind, there is no bind plug in the spirit. The software will not connect to the spirit. I tried to upload the 1.3.2 release and the screen said unit was in recovery mode.
Any ideas what went wrong?
Thanks.

Hello,

it looks like your RPM sensor is connected improperly and behave as a bind plug.
If you are in binding mode, then the unit will not operate correctly.

So you have to modify your wiring.

RPM signal wire should be in the middle of the ELE/PIT/AIL port.

I just realized what I messed up on, I plugged the computer to the wrong side of the spirit, on the tapping you just mentioned. Thanks for the help.
