....but the crank position referrence sensor sounds like a better bet. Usually, even with a coil going bad the car will still run, albeit like doodoo. The sensor is what I'd check next.


Can anybody help with a no-start? Checked relays, they're good. Checked fuel pumps, there good. Checked spark at the spark plugs, no good. Is safe to say that it's a bad coil? Or can a bad Motronics also be the cause for it to not give out spark?

Thanks,

Charlie

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
