Legacy Turbo won't start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Featured Replies

After what appears to be the week from hell, I thought it was ending on a good note. One of my pulley's seized last sunday and left me stranded. THe next day my alternator belt on my svx broke.

 

Anyway, my problem is after having the damaged parts replaced including timing belt, my car won't start. They said that I'm not getting a spark. Where do I begin to figure this out? Pep Boys had done a no start diag on the car earlier in the week, so it's possible that they screwed up something(long story). I've checked all of the connections and everything seems fine. Would fouled spark plugs cause this problem? or possibly the coil pack?

 

Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!

 

If anyone is local and can help, I'd be eternally grateful. The car is in Brookhaven, PA right now.

 

Thanks!!

I assume they have looked for stored codes in the ECU for a clue to this problem. Make sure that the crank angle sensor is working ok and voltage is getting to where it should be with the ignition.

Let me get this right. Everything is fine with your electrical system and a pully messes up your car. You have it "fixed" and now you have an electrical problem.

 

Ask the guy who put on the timing belt to check for proper timing and to see if anything got unpluged, damaged, or otherwise screwed up during the process.
