Jumpered which fuse?
Jumpered which relay?
Check for spark when cranking?
Here's what has to happen and when...
Start-Run Sequence LH2.4
(Assumes the 25Amp Blade fuse is good)
1) During starter cranking, the Crank Position Sensor sends timing pulses to Ignition Control Unit (ICU)
2-a) The ICU uses these CPS pulses to trigger the Power Stage (aka Ignition Amplifier), which initiates spark from the coil.
2-b) At the same time, The ICU also propagates the pulses to the FI ECU, to allow FI operation (no ICU pulses means no FI operation).
3-a) The Fuel Injection (System)* relay (previously energized at Key On) powers the AMM, IAC, ECU, Injectors, and Fuel (pump) relay coil + side.
* The System relay is in the white case with the Fuel relay.
3-b) When ICU pulses are received by the FI ECU, it "energizes" the Fuel relay by grounding the relay coil (– side) to run the fuel pumps.
When all these things work, the engine runs until the Ignition is switched off, which in turn shuts down the FI system.
Determining whether or not there is spark at the plugs (2a) — and whether or not the plugs are getting gas (3b) — makes a good no-start "starting" point.
