hi ive completed puttin in my 20xe into my gte and wired it and piped it all up. but i aint got a spark at the coil for some reason
ive gone all round the engine with me meter and all wires are intact and power is gettin to the ecu
but what i have found is there is no pulse gettin to the coil to make it spark
so ive been told .

on the coil plug what wire is the one that should pulse
also have you got a clue what is causin this as it is really p****n me off now

i have tested the crankshaft sensor and it is all worknig fine ive changed the ecu for an other 20xe one and they both are workin so it aint that so if you can help please do

cheers

Could be something silly like no ign to it?

I don't know the 2.0 16v lump or management but I had no spark when I missed the ign from the coil/module part of the loom!

its the black wire that pulses the green one is for the rev counter. trace it backto inside the car and check as far back as you can!

i take it you mean the black wire comin from the coil which is actually a sleeving for a red and black wire.
anyways its all intact

Glad to hear you got it going!


Could be something silly like no ign to it? (referring to ignition system)

That'll be the ign to the coil then, but from the ECU loom as it's newer Motronic. It caught me out too on my GSi wiring.
