The car will no longer crank. James assembled everything himself, but the starter does not crank. It is an electrical issue. There is plenty of oil in the car and the timing is on and has been rotated several times. The car clicks and makes a humming sound when the ignition is turned. I pulled the starter for him and it was tested to be weak but still works. I checked the signal wire for the starter and there is no voltage present. Does anyone have a wiring schematic to see where the possible problem could be in the circuit? Is there some connector he could have forgotten? All of the CAS, power transistor, coil, etc are plugged in. I tested all of the fuses under the hood and they were all fine. James said he read something about the starter relay switch going out but he could not find it in the car. It is supposedly by the radio new to the fuel pump relay... I have no idea. Anyone know where this relay is? Any idea on how to test it? I guess I could just steal it off the other 2g but.... I haven't looked at it other than a quick once over of the wiring and testing the fuses and starter. I will have tomorrow to try and figure this out. Please help ASAP. Thanks, John.

Low battery?

No. Fully charged and it was I also tried running it off the charger also. There is no signal at the starter wire...

Well, since nobody has any advice and I could not find a wire schematic, I ran a wire off the ignition to the signal wire on the starter (ofcourse I fused it). The car will now crank but spark is fucked up again. Only two ports on the coil put out spark. I have checked two coils now and it is the same. They would be coils 1+4 on a 1g. 3+4 do not put out any spark. I will try yet another coil on it tomorrow but both the other two worked fine when the head was pulled. Any idea???

Caps in the ECU?

When I put my car back together after a head gasket install (95 gsx) I forgot one of the grounds on the battery terminal (it tucked itself behind the battery) and would not start.

I will try another ecu. I will just have to swap the chip into the other socceted one.

Not the problem here.

still no spark in 2 and 3 cylinders. On the next rebuilt head, the compression is 115-148-130-120. The car cranks slowly. I am seriously considering putting the restrictive stock 2g head back on. The compression was 175 across before. What do you think? I will have to do another leak down test again.

It is not the ecu either. Tryed another working one.
