hi.
i have a doosan g25p-3 ser num kq-01185. seems to crank for a long time and throws code 42. other times it starts fast. changed plugs, wires, cap , rotor. checked coil and pick up coil, seems ok. unless the pick up coil is intermittent. code is for est low..... what is the est?
Any help appreciated.

From what diagrams I have. I don't have a pin e. I also have a -2 schematic. I'm guessing that's not going to work.

EST means Electronic spark trigger......code 42 is for low coil driver signalmor current......

EST1Low: (Electronic Spark Trigger) is a current driver signal and normally set if the signal from the SECM is shorted to ground.

Check coil driver wiring and connector for shorts SECM PIN 7(EST1) to COIL PIN A

Verify GND on COIL PIN B Verify GND on COIL PIN C Verify GND on COIL PIN D Verify +12vdc on COIL PIN E

To check the Smart Coil internal circuit disconnect the coil connector and measure the resistance from pin to pin
