Dont crank too long, it will only melt the starter. Start only to test and/or/when after some real changes has been done. It is possible that dead MAF keeps engine from starting. Unplug its connector to test. It Will now start, if MAF is the culprit (idle will roam). Do the same with TPS connectors. Square one: 1. Test that you'll get spark. Find one extra plug, attach it to one coilpack, rest plug thread agains metal engine part, view for spark between gap as smbdy bturns the key. Is there any? !!! If you have spark, then you'll know that ECU works, ign circuit works, Alarm circ is NOT ON, Shift lever sw is ok, Inhibit relay is ok. If no spark, start checking these... 2. Ign off. Feel for fuel hose near filter, under hood. Should be about loose. Now ign ON. Hear pump noise? Feel for fuel hose near filter, under hood. Is it stiff? Should be, much more so than first try... Otherwise u dont get fuel = no start. If no spark, start checking fuel system, tubes, filter, pressure regulator... 3. Take CamPos sensor out, (make a position scratch mark first on it & engine). Put ign ON. Rotate Campos sensor, listen how injectors click. Put sensor back... !!! If you have click, then you'll know that ECU works, controls injectors, ign circuit works, Alarm circ is NOT ON, Shift lever sw is ok, Inhibit relay is ok. 4. Smbdy has to test all those sensors. - What single sensors do NOT affect starting: O2, CamPos, KS, MAP, Canister... - What single sensors can affect starting: MAF, TPS - What single sensors can disable starting: MAF - situation becomes real complicated if two simultaneous dead sensors, its real/bad possibility... My hunch is that you have problem with ign sw, or circuitry, connectors. Maybe one connector/wire after engine swap is loose, broken? Climb all over the harness... Check all fuses &swap, check & swap relays: nissan uses color coded relays, you may interchange them. While doing so mark their function, the problem will move if any of them is the source. Your problem is NOT the car, its the 'service' u get. You should find a place where service guys can reliably do quick troubleshoot. Or, as you seem to be tough guy, tackle this problem until u get it ! This is the way I learned - the hard way is the only way. On the other hand, if a car is always down, (Not typical Nissan), at some stage its better to get another one. Cannot decide for you... But not at this stage - u seem to have constant fault, so this is the easy one. . |
