    M3 not starting

    New to this forum and thought I would ask for some ideas on the issue Im dealing with.
    M3 is not firing up, tried new CPS, new ECU, new temp sensor , grounds are fine, new coil and distributor, but it still doesnt fire. Fuel pumps turn on only when the relay is jumpered.

    Went back to work on it today and now I have lost spark and the ICV is not turning on.

    Any ideas?

    Check the code relay for the OBC.

    Did you open the old ecu to see if the icv transistor is cooked?

      Bypassed the OBC relay, reflowed all connections in ECU and nothing. All transistors looked fine.

        Are you getting 12v at the coil? hook the multi-meter up to the terminals on the coil. if 0, ecu is not grounding coil.

            Your flywheel crank sensors might be toast.

              Installed two new sets of sensors, unless Im that lucky that both sets were bad.
