frustrating no spark problems

baerj1 · May 6, 2012

ok so i bought a 02 accord v6 coupe from the auction a while back and cannot get it to run. the car has no spark to start with i assumed it was a crankshaft sensor so i replaced that but that did not help. then i realized that the fuel pump was not running either so i pinpointed the ecm as the cause so i replaced the ecm and the ignition switch. after that the car ran for about thirty seconds and everything was great and then it died and now i have no spark i have tested all the wiring for power and grounds where they should be and everything checks out now im stumped anyone else seen this or could offer a suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried replacing the coils? It would seem odd that they all are bad, but if you said you checked the wiring and everything was good, then maybe all the coils are bad.

ok i fixed it turns out the connector for the tdc sensors was corroded and causing an open i tested for pulse at the computer for a puls and there was none so i shined the connector at the top front of the timing cover up and she purrs like a kitten... thank god that tdc sensor looks like a nightmare to replace
