Default Fitech install and diagnosis

It has been 2 years since I had my Fitech installed. I am embarrassed to say I didn’t drive it once the last two years. Started it a couple times then let it sit. It cranks but will not turn over and my mechanic spent 2 hours with Fitech trying to diagnose it. They finally decided to send an RMA to send the unit back and repair it.

I had a dumb thought. Any chance the magnet mount I have on the handheld controlling is causing an issue?

Thanks!

Did they say why? My guess is because it sat, and the ethanol in the fuel.

I am putting Holley Sniper on my folks 72 Malibu, looks nearly identical to the FiTech. Hoping it will be trouble free for them.

Recently install a FiTech system in my '67 Camaro.
Cranked right up 1st try and happy to report it runs great.

Lots of wiring and I really took my time with that...sooo many ways it can go wrong.
