Help!! ea-81 ignition, no Spark

[croak]

'82 GL Wagon no spark at coil . Swapped coil & disty from parts car ('81 GL Wagon) Still no Spark, but I do have twelve volts at both sides of the coil. Parts ECU didn't fit. What else other than ECU, disty(Ignition controll module), and coil could be causing the problem?? I don't see an amplifier any where. Im hoping to find an ECU at PAP tomorrow, what years are compatible? is it just '82. Any help, or suggestions greatly appreciated. I need my car back!!

 

P.S. Does anyone have an '82 wiring Diagram.

 

 

Thanks in advance

By placing a test light probe on the minus side of the coil and ground you should see light pulses as you crank the engine. It sounds like the pickup in the disty is bad.

It is the disty or connections.Spark is independent of ECU for 82.

Is the '81 and '82 pickup the same I swapped one from parts car and nothing, I guess Ill get a couple from PAP. also what does the ignition relay control on the '82. I got some weird readings from the conector the low volt side, seems to go to ground on both sides(I tested the relay to make sure it clicked w/ 12v and it did).

 

thanks

You may change your mind about getting two pickups when you find out the price of them.

 

Here is a link to a previous thread that has some prints and info that may help you out. Looking at the print it does appear the ignition relay makes a ground connection.
