what can cause this besides bad ecu? can it be bad external coil? main relay? bad starter? cuz i have a h22a swap, im going to try to run my p14 ecu n see if it is the ecu but if its not then i need to know what to replace. for some reasone the igntion fuse under the hood blew and i already replaced it so theres obviously a short. it all stated when i took the starter off but i connected everything the way it came off so its really buggin my out. any input would be appreciated. thnx in advanced

 

you have a short somewhere that is causing the fuse to pop, did you do all the wiring on this swap or something?

A bad coil alone won't cause that code. You aren't getting signal from the dizzy.

 

im using the h23 harness everything worked fine til i took the started out to replace my clutch. h23 bolted on perect im using the h23 dizzy too. the only wiring i did was the vtec which works perfect but now the car wont start and since its just me workin on the car i cant check for simple stuff like spark, gas, but im sure all thats fine theres just something causing me to throw cel 15

 

well as simple as this sounds did you make sure the dizzy is plugged in well? lol

 

yea it is haha. thats why i was thinkin maybe the external coil is fried.

 

well I should know, I have coil frying problems myself, though they're internal coil problems.

So its still blowing that fuse up there?

You need to check the wiring well....thats funky.

 

nah it only did it that one time, then it ran for a couple of days and that was it when i parked it, it stayed there.

 

bump

 

dude you need to give some details here, you need to test to see if the dizzy is getting +12v before cranking on the blk/yel wire firstly

what is it doing when you crank? just turning and not firing? is it even turning at all?

elaborate

 

u can smell its gettin gas, it tries to turn oves then stops but it does it kinda slowly. instead of turnin fast its kinda sluggish then dies, its not the battery cuz its new, i doubt its the alternator cuz the battery is still good. so im thinkin bad coil maybe, main relay, i already tried my p14 and did nothing. or bad started possibly? stupid cel 15

 

ttt

 

well there is definitely something wrong with the starting system if it barely turns over, check to make sure the battery is putting out at least 12 volts.

 

Ill put up the next page when it uploads
