I have run into an interesting issue. Tri Zone, left pop bumper coil gets hot, was the report. So I immediately figured, bad transistor. Easy fix. Nope! They had already replaced the MPU and SDB with a new Rottendog combo unit and have the same issue. I checked a few things, replaced the switch diode, for good measure too. All coils, minus the one that over heated, test ok.
The cooked coil, I measured the voltages that would be going to it. It has a solid 12 volts all the time. On top of that, it's power pulses with every coil that fires. So it tries to fire as well. My current thought is, the lighting circuit must be shorted in line with this, but I couldn't find anything anywhere.
Any thoughts?
