This should help.Thanks.Helpmech.

Try checking the voltage of the battery to make sure its not week and also check the starter wire.

Clean mass air flow sensor using a non-chlronated brake cleaner

the alternator has a small long bolt on top unscrew it that should release the tension or look for the idler tension is a small round wheel which the belt goes around it too ,with a craw bar or long screw driver you can pry and release the tension good luck

check for power at the heater motor if no power check for power at switch

Youu have to go to your local autoparts store. And tell them all the info. on your tracker. Then tell them that you need an oil pan gasket. That is why it is leaking. Hope this helps, James Booth

Can't tell from here but apperantly one or more parts to your suspension or brake system have failed, sounds more like brake or wheel assembly or trans axle to me. Take the front wheels off and have them checked out before driving again.

check the color of your spark if it is blue your good if orange replace coil dependig on your setup and if you have 1 coild or 8 coils you many have to check each cylinder seperate just pull out spark plug replace the spark plug wire have someone try to start car and lood at color of spark i should note dont hold the wire just let it rest close by

if that is ok replace your crankshaft postion sensor as it tells the cars ecu when and to what cylinder to fire spark to faulty crankshaft postion sensors 99 percent of the time wont allow car to start or very hard starts the other 1 percent

if it helps please leave good review 4 thumbs

REPLACE THE TENSIONER IDLER PULLEY.THE TENSIONER IDLER PULLEY MAINTAINS THE BELT TENSION WHEN IT GOES BAD.THAT WILL LEAD TO LOOSE BELT TENSION CAUSING BELT TO BREAK.

Positive crank case ventilation valve is always attached to the valve cover. To check it, pull it out by hand, should slide out easy, and shake it, if it rattles, it`s good. then just slide it back into place.

what kind of car?

I had the same problem with my S-10 and it threw a code intermittently. There were
two problems, a cracked seal on the gas cap and an intermittent heater problem
with the mass air flow sensor. The truck ran but got terrible gas mileage with
the mass air flow sensor problem. You might be able to have the codes checked
at an autozone or other parts store that offers this service free. Also check the
coolant level at the radiator and not just the return tank, mine had become disconnected due to age and allowed coolant to escape the radiator and not
return to the block but appeared full because the line had fallen behind the battery.

You have three other coils that are working. If you test the brown wires on those (brown/whit, brown/yellow, brown black) and the test light flashes than your on the right track with the bad PCM. You should see a flash or pulse with the test light as the PCM turns the ground on and off to trigger the coil.

If it where wiring (brown wire shorted) than it would burn up as soon as you turned the key on. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa
