I've been having a problem with my Link (an Obiwan installed in a 95 NA with
a Boomslang adapter harness) for a while now. None of the readings on the
keypad are very stable. It started out with the water temperature jumping 6
degrees several times per second (88,90,92,90,92,88,90,94,88, etc) and now
the rest of the sensors are following. I initially thought this was just a
bubble around my water temp sensor, but when ATM started doing the same
jump, I thought I'd send an email. Yeah, atmospheric. Just sitting on my
driveway ATM jumps from 81 to 86 and back a couple of times per second (I
live at 5500' in Albuquerque). That doesn't seem right.

MAP is also quite jumpy. As a result of the MAP being unstable, I drive
along in T mode most of the time. Sometimes, it'll settle down to a 1 kpa
fluctuation and I can get L3 numbers on my keypad. But most of the time, I
get rapid 3-5 kpa jumps while cruising with a very steady foot. That puts me
in T mode.

Suggestions anyone? It seems like a problem with the Link itself. Perhaps
there's a capacitor on the board somewhere that likes to give out? My ribbon
cable is in good shape and I never get garbage characters on the keypad. The
car itself never cuts out. I'm just getting very rapid fluctuations on the
sensors. The only sensor that seems to give a steady reading is the air temp
probe.

Thanks,

Adam
