Please make sure ur antitheft system isnt activated. the light for this should be off while ur cranking engine. best thing to do is hook up a scanner and read data like eng rpm wen cranking to check cranksensor operation and codes to see if theft system has maybe locked u out. good luck

2001 Kia sportage crank but won't start

Make sure you're getting spark at the spark plugs. You can do this by arching the plug to the engine block Just Google "how to test spark plugs". If there is a spark then it could be your timing, which is what happened to my wife's car, once we replaced everything, this was the final thing which solved her problem.

Car turning,not starting,and no spark,installed crank sensor,on mazda etude 2000model 1.8

You have got to isolate your problems one by one. Is your crank position sensor working? Yoiu can test it individually or you can plug in a diagnisis interface and crank enine in a raltime test mode and measure engine RPM. If sensor is ok you get revs recorded and you go to next step i.e getting spark at the plugs. The spark is also a series of wiring and interfaces so you start from ignition switch itself to the ICU, power output stage and coil packs. Once you have your spark then worry about the fuel.

95 Park Avenue Ultra dies for no reason I can find, I've replaced the crank sensor, cam ssensor, spark module, fuel filter, I've had the injectors tested, fuel pump tested, plugs & wires t

As you have probably figured out by now, you will have to treat it as a no start and troubleshoot it when it fails to start. Until you figure out if you are loosing spark or fuel to the injectors when the engine dies you have no direction to go in.

My car wont start and i've gotten the battery checked. it's seems to be a good battery. now i'm looking at my fuses. i don't know what else to check

If its cranking and wont start it could be alot of things.
if its not cranking or just clicking your next check should be the starter

1992 mazda mpv, 6 cyls. it occurs a year ago after tune up. its luck power. during smog test, and now it cranks but wont go through when it start. changed the rotor, spurk plugs and cable

Check your gas for possible water. Just in case try a can of SEAFOAM in your gas. It will take about 10 min of running to work. Also recheck the gap on the spark plugs it should be .044 gap. One other thing to check is the firing order and make sure the wires were put back in the right place to the right spark plug

Ok we changed the ignition module in our 1987 buick century, 2.5 liter and now when you start the car it just dies continuiously but once we get it started it will go but acts like it wants to die at stop...

Did you replace the crank sensor that is bolted to the back of the module? Is it possible that you got two of the plug wires switched. Or maybe 1 of the two coils is bad.
