Well i cant figure it out, the car died on me while i was driving home about 2 weeks ago. I started misfiring that morning so i assumed it was time for spark plug change but before i could make it 2 miles the car shut off and wont start anymore.


Its turning over like its trying to start but just not firing up. so ive checked

Spark plugs - brand new
Brand new coils
Fuel pump works cause i have fuel preasure
battery works cause its trying to crank so i know the starter should still be good too


I'm clueless is there something im missing?

 

Fuses okay?

My car did the exact same thing, turns out I blew the #8 fuse because one of the o2 sensors grounded out. Check the fuse, then check your o2 sensor wiring. Sometimes if you have a CEL fix it will rub the plastic shielding off the wire leaving it exposed.

Good luck.

 

+1 on the fuse, I had a fuel pump fuse I think (its been a while) blew when I was driving, and replaced it and worked like a charm.

 

I just checked all the fuses and none are blow ;/ which # is the fuelpump fuse? but i dont think its my fuel pump because have fuel preasure.

 

It can still be the battery even if it tries to crank. IF it's any weaker than normal when cranking, then it could be the battery. Or, the alternator could be bad, which has caused the battery to get weakened and unable to provide enough energy to crank. Have you jumped it to see what happens? You should be able to tell if the alternator is working or not - let it run at idle for a bit.

 

+1 on trying to jump the car to see if it is the alternator

 

How about the 40 amp ignition fuse(under hood), did you check it/re-seat it?

 

K ill try that if that doesnt work im going to buy a new Cam position sensor to find out.

 

where is that located at?

 

Fuse box under the hood 40 amp fuse. Should be easy to find....

 

checked it and checked both fuel relays also, and i just tried to get it jumped still nothing.


I'm thinking CAS might be my next geuss since it was misfiring before it died anyways. i know my old eclipse cas went out and it wouldnt crank either.

 

did you just install something?
Did you get any codes?

 

Please list your recent mods and work done to the car.

 

no mod's added since my last tune, nothing changed at all. no works been done, i was actually on the way to get oil and spark plugs to do that and it died on the way there.

 

Do you have a mini battery?

Are you sure you are getting spark?
