I have a 2003 Suzuki Aerio and it stopped running. It tries to start but can not get any fire to the spark plugs. Does anyone know what could be wrong?

The fact that your car tries to start tells me that your starter, alternator and battery are all probably good.
If none of your spark plugs are getting spark you probably have faulty spark plug wires, or distributor. Check these two things first. Make sure your wires are securely connected to distributor and plugs. To test them individually, take out the spark plug and leave it in the wire. Turn your car over and check for spark from the plug one cylinder at a time. Do not hold the plug in your hand or you will get a nice shock.

I agree with checking the wires and plugs, but they dont usually go bad all at the same time. 2003 uses crankshaft and camshaft sensors and individual coils (no distributor) to set spark firing. Did it set an engine code? If the crankshaft sensor goes bad, it will not let the car have any spark, although you will here the fuel pump turn on for about 3 - 5 seconds. .

My 2003 Suzuki Aerio sometimes starts right, sometimes struggles but starts, and occasionally won't start at all. Maybe the starter or ignition switch??

First of all, if the engine turns over, you DON'T need a starter or an ignition switch. Don't fall into the 'let's try replacing this' method of car repair! It is costly and never works.

First replace the cap cap, it is part of the pressurized fuel system and may be the answer to all the issues. $20 from Walmart, or $15 from Napa Auto Parts.

Then connect a code reader and find why that Engine Light comes on. Your vehicle has a computer that records everything that is wrong with it. A cheap code reader gives you the basics, a $5,000 scan tool computer tells you everything, historically and in real time as the vehicle is starting of being driven.

The other thing to check is that the battery is good. Interstate will test for you for free in the parking lot and only takes 2 minutes including the printout. I think AutoZone and Napa also does it.

My 2004 Suzuki Aerio will not start

the scanner drops out when the power voltage drops too low.
so your 12vdc the ECU is tool low. use volt meter
to find the voltage drop point.
you mean no spark, fire is what fuel does when ignited.
and spark is first. if no spark say, i have no spark to 4 cylinders.
my guess is this.
lost DC power to ECU.
this kills spark
and loss of spark kills injection so, lost power kills injection 2 ways.
find this problem by watching spark and power to ECU.
the ECU will drop out about at 9v.
cranking the voltage usaully sags to about 11v cranking.
now you have a goal 11v min, to ECU at all times.(cept siberia)

Can't find spark plugs on a 2003 suzuki aerio sx

Remove plastic gaurds on top of engine. On the head of the engine block. There are 4 black smaller rectangular boxes. They are each held down by a screw in the corner of each. Unplug the black box. Pull upward on it. The bottom of this tube is what connects to the top of the sparkplug. You will need a socket extension to get the spark plug socket that far down. When you connect with the spark plug it will seem like your shoving the socket so far down its going into the engine. Remove plugs then re assemble everything. Do one completly before going to the next as to not confuse the wiring order. I had to use medical forceps (very long medical tweezers) to get my plugs out they are in a deep shaft deep in the engine block itself. I tried needle-nose pliers and they did not go deep enough. Hope that helps.

When you look at the engine you should see a black plastic cover over the top, you have to remove the (4) bolts that should allow you access to the top of your motor. You will then have to remove The bolts that are holding your plugwires to the top of your engine. Once removed you will then have to pull up on the wires, you will then see that your spark plugs. Note you will need at least a 6 inch extension to be able to reach the plugs. Good Luck
