How did the no-start problem come about?

Any CEL codes?

Is spark bright white at all four plugs?

Are the fuel injectors spraying fuel?

Have you checked the mechanical timing?

could be the ECU i think it has to make two clicks on the relay and after a couple of second do a third click, my car had the same problem and after alot of research we found it to be the ecu

I kno u said u have fuel and spark but there is only two things that cause it not to start fuel or spark unless u have a bad ecu. Does it actually crank or just click?

I'm willing to bet it's the starter. If you turn the key over and all you hear is a click, meaning the motor is not trying to turn over it's for sure the starter.
To fix it locate the starter and tap it the tire iron that come with the jack etc or a hammer and have someone try starting the car at the same time. This should work if the starter is just stuck and not completely done. Hope this helps

gota agree with short it sounds like your starter is going out and possibily try moving the wire to the starter, it could possibly be loose

Ok. So the starter is fine all the drive belts r moveing how they should timing is fine but when checking for spark it doesn't seem like it has enough only a little bit of spark and the main relay Is clicking alot when trying to start.
