Alright gentlemen here is the latest. So parts replaced (all oem parts): plugs wires dizzy cap rotor ignition coil distributor ignition pickup and cps. Still no spark. Checked all fuses and qiring and nothing exposed or blown. Any ideas?

 

Do you hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the key? If not, for kicks and giggles, try jumpering the Asd relay. It eliminates it as an issue, or shows its faulty.

 

FYI: The manufacturer calls that a Switch Plate in the parts catalog. The FSM refers to it as a Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP).

 

Can you describe how you determined you are not getting spark please.

Did you perform the tests in my previous post?

 

Ok well here im going to state that very good point and I apologize for overlooking this comment. No I did not check that. Update though. So battery was bad and fuel pump relay is bad but asd relay is fine. Found a link on how to bypass those so I tried it and that's what I found. So tomorrow im going to check the coil grounding. But if it isn't grounding does that harmit at all?

 

Well cleaned the bracket and made sure ignition coil was clean and still nothing.

 

See post #13.

You never did say how you determined that you are not getting spark, nor if you did the tests in post #13.

 

Pulled out a plug hooked it back into boot grounded it out and no spark. Took wire off coil and cranked and no spark between coil and wire

 

You need to determine if you are getting 12 volts to the coil and if the PCM is pulsing it to ground.

If you don't have voltage and/or ground pulse there may be a PCM driver problem or voltage supply problem. That is to say that the ASD relay is functional.

 

Asd relay is good. I jumpered it last night and vehicle acted the same. Trying to find volt meter at the moment to test all points.

 

Ok gentlemen here ya go. So come to find out im only getting .12 volts to my ignition coil. Where do I go from here.

 

Is that decimal point 12? Are you sure you have your meter set to 20 volts DC?

 

Yes it is a decimal 12 and yes im positive. I have 3.8 coming out the pcm but a quarter that actually gets to my ignition coil. I tried to take a picture but the downloader wouldn't let me

 

How did you determine you have 3.8 volts coming out of the PCM?

I think you should get another Voltmeter (Digital) and check your voltages again. Sometimes a bad Voltmeter will send you off chasing your tail with bogus readings.

Edit: The 12 volt power source to the coil does not come from the PCM. It comes from the ASD relay via fuse F21 in the PDC.

The PCM provides the ground driver for the coil.

The wire carrying the 12 volt source is the Dark Green.Orange tracer wire at the coil. The PCM driver wire is the Gray wire.

 

Volt meter is good. Even tested a few circuits on my wife's car and got exactly what it was supposed to be. So your telling me the dark green wire with the orange tracer coming from the pcm does not go to the coil. Tested it multiple times and every time it came back with the same reading
