i have a 1998 kia sportage with a 2.0 with 121k recenty it died on me we are doing diagnostic its got spark and its getting gas to the injectors but the injectors are not opening my question is could it be the control unit egi or something anybody has another idea please tell me
note it has a new timing belt

How did you verify that the fuel injectors weren't being pulsed by the ECM?

i checked with a test light to make sure it was getting ground a power and its not getting any ground any ideas on why??? like i said its getting gas to the injectors its got 50 pounds of psi if you put starter fluid it will run until it runs out and it deose have spark what makes the injectors work ???

...mmmm...died on you?...are you sure you did not loose the timing belt anyway for some weird cause? If cams do not rotate, the cam position sensor sends no signal to trig the injectors..but the crank position sensor fires the spark anyway.....or could it be the cam position sensor ....any codes?

nop no codes--- but i swaped control modules doese the same thing im kinda leading for the ecm what do you think because also checked timing belt is perfect and like i said no ground to the injectors

THe injectors have one side hot and the othjer side is grounded by the ECM when their turn comes. THe cam position sensor is a key element in that logic.

Turn the key on and see if the check engine lite comes on. This is a bulb check. If it does not I would suspect the EGI relay is bad. It is in the eng. compartment fuse box.
Replace both the EGI relay and fuel pump relay with FACTORY ONLY relays. Aftermarkets do not have the circuitry required for the heated O2 sensors and will give you an MIL light as well as poor driveability.
