I am for sure 100% not getting spark
I am for sure 100% not getting spark
i apologize but what do you mean?At coil. What about 12v with key on?
Will not get spark without power
i apologize but what do you mean?
what fuse would it be? ive checked all ( 3 if I remember correctly) ignition fuses in the fuse box under the hood. is there any others?Cool has 2 wires.
1 is 12volts from fuse.
The other is ground wire pcm uses to trigger coil.
When my FRPS went, it's been 6 or 7 years. But if I remember, when you remove the sensor, and you smell or see fuel, its no good. No need to have a buddy crank the car. I think you might have a FRPS issue. When hotcobra03 is asking 12v at the COP, unhook it from the harness, and check the prongs inside the harness connection. Using a multimeter, check for a 12v signal. Then you will know of you have power at the COP, you are not going to get shocked when a thumb is over the end of the COP. Add a plug, grab the COP, find a suitable ground ground the threads of the plug. Have someone crank the car, while making sure the plug is touching the grounded metal source.Yes, I pulled the frps and had my buddy turn the key and im getting fuel, also when you crank it you can smell the raw fuel. I pulled a few coils and put a spark plug in it and cranked but no spark.
I understand and you are 100% correct that my thumb is not suitable to test. I tried starting fluid as well and it did nothing. I also replaced the frps already.When my FRPS went, it's been 6 or 7 years. But if I remember, when you remove the sensor, and you smell or see fuel, its no good.

Starting fluid in the cylinder? Check for spark with the plug in the COP, ground it. Or 12v at the harness. Starting fluid is not a great substitute for troubleshooting. When I did the FRPS, also after changing it, I had to flat the accelerator, and it would crank for a bit before it cleared up to fire. When you get it running again, change the oil, most likely plenty of fuel in it. I never saw any info you posted on actually replacing the FRPS. Just checking it. You'll get this figured out and be up and running soon.I understand and you are 100% correct that my thumb is not suitable to test. I tried starting fluid as well and it did nothing.

ill check later today when I back off work. this is driving me crazy, the car cranks just fine, you get very strong smell of fuel but no spark.
location of these fuses?Yes many more fuses to check.
It’s alway best to check every fuse.
Some are hot at all times
Some with key on
A couple will power when lights come
Something now says you most likely have a blown fuse that started this no start.
Ya you definitely need to concentrate on verifying spark isn’t occurring in each cylinder. Easiest is to buy a good plug/coil tester. You’ll be chasing ghosts unless you verify for sure. I have a feeling it could be ECM related. Or the corresponding wiring. I just had a code which was a loose connection in the coil connector. It did shut down fuel to that cylinder. FYI
**Also haven't seen mentioned, you have pushed the red button in the trunk so make sure it's not the inertia switch right? Probably have just making sure.
I was originally thinking the inertia switch too but he keeps saying there's always a fuel smell, inertia switch eliminates that
I've replaced the FRPS, also the red button is not popped up
