I have a 1999 Mazda Astina, I have crank and cam angle sensor signals, but I have no injection pulse or coil spark. I think it may have something to do with the immobiliser but I have no testing proceedures for it. The immobiliser light does not illuminate under any conditions. All fuses are good

SOURCE: 2001 mazda protege will not start

well, with all that you have changed the only two possible things that are left PCM and the ECM....

Do you have an alarm system on this vehicle? If you purchased this car second hand it may have something that is inhibiting the engine from firing. From what you have told us here that would be where I would start looking.

I really hope this is helpfull

Sherylpuha,

Have you checked the coil from where the spark comes from and the computer sensor fuse block?

SOURCE: Battery for 1997 Mazda 323 Astina 5dr hatch

It's fine to use a battery with a higher cold crank rating than original. Consider the rating in the manual to be a minimum requirement. You'll be fine as long as the physical dimensions and terminal placement are compatible with your car. The battery manufacturer's guide should tell you which battery fits your car.

SOURCE: mazda astina pop up lights wont go back down

Try to check if there is something stuck to the motor of the pop-up lights mechanism. You can see it below the fenders. The fender liner should be removed.

Check the brake fluid resovoir, on the side there could be a hose coming off it part way down the side sharing the brake fluid to the clutch master cylinder

Hyundai sonata 2006 no injection pulse there's spark to plugs

Is there an RPM signal reading on the scan tool when the car is cranking? If there's no RPM signal, it's likely there's a problem with the crank sensor or cam sensor. An RPM signal usually indicates the two are good.

If you're getting an RPM signal, I'd back probe the injectors, and look into confirming you have good supply voltage, and a steady 12V on the injector control wires. I'm assuming the injectors are switched on by the computer ground.

If the voltage stays low or remains at 0v on the control wires, you have to look further into the circuit feeding the injectors. A wiring diagram would be best.

Wont start. it has injector pulse but no spark

is there power and ground to the coils?

If there is injector pulse than the crank sensor has to be good. Injector pulse and spark are both calculated off from the signal from the crank sensor.

Checking for power and ground to the coils is a good place to start. If that checks out than either there is a wiring issue in between the PCM and the coils or possible the PCM has failed.

1998 Mitsubishi spider 2.4 spark plug and Coil want wiring diagram

Your engine uses a "waste spark" ignition, meaning it uses one coil for each pair of cylinders. The high voltage current path is to the first spark plug, through the aluminum cylinder head to the secodn spark plug, then out of that plug back to the ingnition coil. One plug fires on the comrpession stroke and the other on the exhaust stroke to ignite any unburned exhaust gasses. The engine's computer "fires one coil at a time based on signals from the crank angle sensor and the cam angle sensor. Likely the problem with your engine is with one of those two sensors.

An OBDII scanner will indicate which sensor is defective. If the engine ran fine before you turned it off, and now it will not start, the problem is likely the crank angle sensor (close tot he crank pully). Otherwsie, oif the engine starts sometimes and not others, it is due to a defective cam angle sensor (near the intake cam "gear" (where the timing belt cover is).

What is a cam sensor and what does it do?

the cam position sensor, does exactly as its name implies. It monitors the Valve Cam position and has a number of functions. mainly valve timing and ignition timing. As most engines are computer controlled spark instead of the old mechanical distributer, the ECU controls the timing of the spark based on information it gets from the Cam Position Sensor and other sensors on the engine.

Hope this is of some help and what you were looking for.

93 Jeep Cherokee has very weak spark from the coil and will not start

You are correct in your understanding. If the coil has at least 12 volts and gets a ground signal from the computer, the coil should fire. The coil actually sparks when the ground is removed.
The cam and crank sensors tell the computer when the cylinders are at top dead center which also opens the injectors.
Have you checked to see if you have battery voltage at the coil, and tried another coil ?

2000 MITSUBISHI i no injector pulse or coil spark

check to see if you are getting signal from the crank position sensor, you might have a crank position sensor or cam sensor out. That's the most common problem when there is no injector pulse or spark.

Why can't I get spart. Don't have injector pulse.

Loss of injection pulses usually means a loss of an engine timing signal or even the security pack preventing the vehicle from starting.
You need to check all the timing signals, crank angle sensors, cam angle sensors etc and ensure that any security is disabled or turned off.
Check for spark, if you have spark but not injection pulses, then its a timing signal issue. If you dont have spark or injection pulses, also check the ECU (the cars computer) although I do not know of any issues with this make and model.

1999 mitsubishi eclipse 2.0L na. no start. will crank. no power to coil pack. no codes. cam and crank sensor replaced. still no start or spark.

On this model engine, the power to the coil pack is delivered directly from the power transistors located inside the PCM.
If you are not getting the signal to fire going into the coil, verify you are getting a good waveform from the crank angle sensor, and that the wiring from it to the PCM is intact. If the crank sensor is delivering signal to the PCM, and the PCM is not generating pulse via the internal power transistors, the PCM has failed (the power transistors blow open, it is fairly common on this Chrysler PCM).

88 cavalier has no spark

you need to start somewhere. get hold of a scanner and see if car has a crank signal. the crank signal supplies refrence for both base for ignition and injection pulse. if it has injector pulse and no spark, look at the ignition module/ coils but if has neither look at the crank sensor or harness to the module
