No Spark Problem, Help Me Locate The Problem

[R324DR]

i think its an earth. i will upload photos shortly that may help.

i just went and checked... and i found that resistor....but it is already pluged in... so it can't be that.... the plug i am trying to find a home for is the same plug as the one the one that plugs into the resistor though...

bugger....

and the colour of the wires that go to it are pale green and a blue one

ok well in that case. look around for a little connector that has 2 blue wires with a green stripe and ull have ur plug.... shouldnt be to far away

[R324DR]

these pictures should help. it looks like the connection you are looking for comes out from between the loom and the firewall and joins a mount on the firewall.

ok well thos pictures if u cant find it...... its gone lol.... quite obvious where it is then huh lol.....

Cheers: r324dr

found the plug and connected it (got jammed down below the heater pipes

still no spark though.

have u changed over computers with sumones elses.... just at a chance

have you check to make sure u have a positve feed to the coils, an earth and pulse feed from igniter.

i have done yes, i have tested for earth on the coilpack plug (all is good) and the test light flashes when i connect it to the poitive side of the coilpack plug (when i crank the motor over)

in the manual i have, it says to connect the multimeter to earth and the other lead to the middle wire on the coilpack plug.... but it does'nt tell me what the multimeter should read?...

[R324DR]

no worries mate. i'll send you the bill haha. pm sent re other plug.

agreed worth a try

computers can report false error codes too when they are farked

[116.hks]

i don't think it's a computer problem as he has an injector pulse and pulse to the coils. the cas sends a pulse to the computer and the computer outputs to the coils and injectors.

[116.hks]

i would double check to see if the coils are earthed to the block. meaning that the rail they sit on is earthed.

[ECR 033]

i have 2 earth wires bolted down that come from the coilpack loom... thats all that i would need?

[R324DR]

should be one earth from the coil loom going to the igniter and one going to the last coil pack bracket bolt.

[116.hks]

should be. under crank just make sure you don't have a voltage drop on the earth side. get ya multimeter and select voltage and connect one lead to the earth on the battery and the other to the engine. you should not see anything greater then .5volt...... also check the positive side of the coil under crank to make sure you don't have a voltage drop. under crank you'll expect to see the voltage drop to 10volts at the battery and no less at the coils.

check the block is earthed to the chassis/battery from under the plenum, big fat black cable

true but its worth a try wouldnt ya think. just plug and play

and lets not 4get he went through how many batteries.....

ok all plugs accounted for

cranks over fine now, good oil pressure.

still no spark though, checked earth wires etc., i have a multimeter handy if some one can tell me how to test the colipack plugs and ignightor properly and what readings i should get etc.

not alot of gtr's down here still, so i cant really swap ecu's etc.
