My timing system has developed a very strange fault. One lane keeps throwing up completely random lap times, it happens when there is no car on the track to trigger any. When a car is circulating it also does it in between genuine times.
It is not a program glitch as both RC and LapTimer 2000 do it. It only affects one lane, the other works normally and I have tried switching both the sensors and the overhead LEDs over - same lane plays up so they are not at fault.
Also it only occurs when the pit garage lighting system is switched on. Turn it off and everything works normally. I have changed nothing in the wiring etc and it has only started recently. I can't see why there should be any interaction between the timing system and the garage lights so I am stumped. Any ideas folks?
