    Check if you get power to the coils or if the main relay is triggered on or if the fuel pump relay is triggered on as well,you can check if you get power on the green unfused wire if not then right next to the abs ecu there is a black box ,that black box has 4 wires ,two of them are green, try to jump those two wires and see if it's going to start or at least trigger the main and fuel pump relay and if it does then that relay has a burn circuit inside,I can't remember in this second the name of relay but it's related with the OBC( you can put a password code in the OBC and if you want to start the car and you don't put the code in the OBC ,the OBC will not trigger that relay and the car won't start.

    Fuel lines:




    Power Distribution Block:






    Starter:




    Could it be these shitty connectors?




    Here's the adapter:

    (dont mind that green wire I snipped)




    For the life of me I can't remember where this went?

    When I bypass the relay and jump it, the fuel pump gets power. I switched out that relay with a diff one and nothing changed.

    Help: M50 Cranks But Won't Turn Over

    Pics on post 4

    Okay, so I'm so close to being done with my M50 swap, I can taste it. But I've ran into a snag in the final stages. I'm not getting fuel or spark. From what I've gathered from searching is that something is telling the DME to not start. I checked both the crank and cam position sensors and both are good. I swapped DMEs to no avail. I've swapped relays, I've triple checked my wiring, and I'm pretty sure the engine and ECU are grounded. I'm at a loss guys....any suggestions?

    Here's a video of it cranking if that helps at all.



    Here is my pin chart, I believe this is correct, but I hope I'm wrong......
