Aim LCU One Failure
Has anyone had an LCU-One fail? Mine is giving incredibly inconsistent readings from lap to lap and even within the same lap. I have tried replacing the sensor twice.
Will any vendors sell me just the controller without a sensor?

It's best to send the controller to Lake Elsinore or Roanoke and have them check it out. Matt, Jerry or I could sell you a new one, but not without the sensor and that solution really shouldn't be needed.
I've sold over a hundred and have not had an issue or a DOA, but if you have as much variance as you're seeing, there's either a crappy voltage connection, CAN cable connection (AiM CAN to the logger) or an internal component or solder joint that is flaky.

I had a customer's sensor fail this weekend at Road America. It was the second sensor he had fail. I found out that he is running 110 octane leaded fuel. These will work for a short time with lead but will eventually fail. His new sensor lasted 2 days.

I've had issues with mine, seems like since purchase. It improved after I contacted Aim and sent it back to them for a check. I think their customer support is top notch and would suggest you contact them.
