Default *** injectors not firing*** need help asap

long story short, car bogged and died, not comming onto it at all. jdm b16, JDM p30 in a 92 si hatch.

tested everything, getting fuel to the rail, its just that the injectors are not shooting fuel into the cyclinders. they are not getting power, tested with a test light.

a mechanic says it might be something in the distrubuter, but i do not know, is it possible it might be the ECU? how can i check to see which 1 it might be?


please help

ps - once the car bogged and died, it started throwing codes 21 (primary o2 heater) and 41 ( vtec silinoid switch) or something... it also had a code 20 for a long time that i couldnt clear.... HELP

Crank position sensor (CPS) can cause the injectors not to work.

i checked all the fuses, nothing that i can see... the funny thing is that as soon as it happened, it started throwing codes 21 and 41, neither of which should make the car not run :?
it also had code 20 too but it worked fine before that for a long time...

since it just died right out, im thinking its something in the distributer, i dont think the ecu would just go for no reason

check the 15a fuse under your dash on the panel closest to your steering wheel, if not try a different ignition coil!
