I have been working on this issue now for three days. After the swap I could not get the car to start on its own the fuel pump worked and got spark, so I pushed the car to start it and it ran fine when push started. good power ran perfect. I noticed that the tranny ground was not on and thats why it wouldn't start. after that the car started on its own i drove for about 1/2 a mile and the car died. I noticed that I had no pump prime and thought the pump had went out so I replaced the pump and still nothing. I check the rest of the ground and they are all good, all fuses are good and the main relay and the ecu are good tested on another car. So now that I have tested eveything I can think of i still have no power to the pump and no spark. any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Check/replace the main relay.

 

I already checked the relay it is good. tested it in another hatch and the car ran fine.

 

you said you're not getting power to the pump, so wouldn't that mean you have to check your wiring? You may have a short or even a loose ground inside the car.

it would also help if you had a manual, it literally holds your hand in diagnosing issues like this.

i mean "car won't start" will get you at least 300 results if you searched, I know cause i've done it, and they are ALL THE SAME.

 

I had the same problem in one of my cars. I had no fuel or spark. Found that it was a screw under the fuse/relay panel (next to battery) that had corossion.. Cleand it up and as soon as I put it back in I heard the fuel pump kick in... I would certainly go through those connections..
