HELP! my contour won't start

ok I'm usually pretty good at figuring stuff like this out but I'm lost.

I have a 96 contour with the 2.0L 4 in it

I have fuel at the rail and power to the coil, but it won't start so I went ahead and did cam and crank sensors and a new coil cuase the cars got about 100k and it wouldn't hurt to do a little maintenance. well none of those help so I get out my meter and my manual and start poking around around. I have 1.5V for the crank sensor at the bulkhead connector and the sensor same thing for the cam sensor so I know the harness is ok...

it sounds to me like my pcm is probably bad but before I go and spend a ton of money I just want to make sure I'm not over looking something...

I've inspected and cleaned all the grounds. it just started doing this for no apparent reason.... I don't even have any codes...

appreciate any input that anyone might have

thanks

hmm...thats a tough one. I doubt the ecu is the culprit, but i guess anything is possible. Try disconnecting the MAF and see if it starts and runs on limp mode.

ECU usually will not cause a "No Spark" condition.

Check the wires to the ignition module. If they are making good connections then try replacing the Ignition Module.
