I would say kill switch from the alarm. Get rid of the alarm and it should start. Alarms will mess with ignition causing no spark.

depends on how the alarm is installed. A typical install would just be to interrupt the starter. If the installer knew what he/she was doing they could have interrupted the ignition circuit. You would know if that was the case because you wouldn't get voltage at the ignition coil harness.

Figured it out thanks for the help. One of the 3 prints on the cam angle sensor was bent up and wasn’t connecting into the sensor correctly.

I’m almost willing to put money in that you may have the crank sensor installed incorrectly. I did the same thing and thought it was correct but it wasn’t. I’d check that if you haven’t.

As far as I can tell it is correctly in what do you mean by installing it correctly. It is torqued to the right spec and defiantly on the crank plate

Only way I can think of to be incorrectly installed is if the plate was flipped over. But that would be easy to see it's wrong.

FF to 6:55 mark...

You can also have the sensor flipped too.

Can’t remember if it will or not. But I had the sensor flipped on mine, so that’s how I know it’s possible.

I better check mine because my sensor could be flipped. That would explain why the plate was making contact on the inside.

if your sensor is flipped it wouldn’t trigger...

How is your timing belt installed? What belt did you use? What marks did you use to assure everything was straight when the belt was put on?

timing belt got installed by a buddy who says he’s timed a 2.4 evo before. It’s the timing belt off of the galant I’m pretty sure I got the part number from a shop that did a previous build on a 2.4. I am thinking my timing has to be off the one mark on the balancing shaft doesn’t line up with the timing mark on the crank plate.
