Question Still won't start......

Ok here's the story.. i took my 99gs into a shop like 2 months ago because on the way home one day my car just died.. i was shifting into 2nd and it just "shut off" so i had it towed to the shop.. they told me i had a bad crank sensor .. no biggie so i buy 1 and put it in because it was way cheaper for me to do it then for them to.. so it still won't start.. then they tell me my ecu is bad.. ok whatever so i go and get an ecu took it up there last week and it still won't spark!!! put a new cam sensor and new coil pack w/ new ngk plugs and wires in it and still won't start or even get any spark.. what else could it be? does anyone have any ideas? if you do please let me know i hate paying for a car that i can't drive!!! its been about 2 1/2 - 3 months since i have drove my car!!thanks for the input!!

Re: Still won't start......

did you check the fuses? check the wires running to the coil pack, check all the relays and all the ground wires running to the block to make sure its grounded good enough!

Relay aint going to help you man. I have a 96 Rs and I have the same exact problem as you. I replaced my ECU 3 time... New relays/ new starter/ coils/ cranks sensor/ oil pump/ battery/ cam sensor/ etc... still no spark. Its been 3 months in my shop we even tried to re-set the timing and its fine... so no clue man.... let me know if you find out whats wrong man =\
