My 89 Dodge Shadow, favorite winter beater was stuck in my garage for a month as I was trying to figure out what to do with it. No spark at coil, no voltage or anything. Plus no fuel pump getting energized but it turned over just fine. No codes either. Finally got a chance to look at it with my brother inlaw and started checking all the wires until we got to the relays. Took off the "auto shutdown relay" and immediatly discovered the red wire on the harness had completely broke off due to corrosion. Looks like battery acid had finally taken it's toll, cleaned it up and wham it started right up. Leason learned, keep all battery acid from building up on the wiring around it or it will eventually eat anything it gets on.
