my friends 2000 gsr is getting no spark at all. he just parked it, came back out to start it up and nothing.

here is a list of what has been checked or replaced:

-ICM
-coil
-voltage and wiring to the dizzy
-ecu
-timing belt
-ALL grounds
-rotor
-cap
-spark plugs
-plug wires
-ignition switch
-ALL fuses

i think that is it..

 

ok heres what you DO, listen... tell your friend to buy a Dc2-R,

jk, you fooled me

 

most likely its a cut wire somewhere
take it to an electrition

 

did you check the igniter in the dizzy?
not the ign. coil.

how can a wire just cut itself while sitting there parked?

besides the dizzy is getting voltage. all wiring has been checked.

 

whats happening what you try to start?
nothing at all or just cranking with no catch?

You forgot the Battery. But, it could be alarm related.

 

check the ground wires, mine did that and it was a ground wire.

 

main relay.

how does a main relay control spark?

It controls fuel. how do you know the problem wasn't fuel related?

 

it can be the main relay or the ecu. main relay provide power to the ecu. check to see if either crapped out on you.

 

Tap on the starter a few times....Seriously.

explain how that causes the no spark?

there is no spark at all in cylinders 1,2,3,4

how do i know?? uh you put a spark plug in the end of the plug wire and ground the electrode and have someone crank it over.

 

maybe somethings up with the spark plugs , are the plug wires getting voltage if so replace then its the spark plug my .02

 

Maybe the Main Relay, just maybe.

 

are you sure it's getting fuel?

parked as in a few hours, or months?

how did u check those things you listed? by the book or just ya it looks good! ?

 

how about the relay under the dash, my friends eg did the same thing and he swapped it out and it ran fine just a thought

 

what about the crank positioin sensor. Check that and make sure it didnt disconnect.

can the sensors inside the dizzy cause it to get no spark at all? i mean by grounding the spark plug to check for spark, not with it all together and trying to start the car..

its getting fuel.

parked for a few hours.

checked it all by the book and replaced alot of stuff..

...i think he's is just going to need a new dizzy.

 

nobody said this but did you put the wires where they should be, for the spark plugs. if you screw up the order you will crank but not start. i know i had the same problem. just check out if your wires are where they should be for your dist. and on the engine.
