I have searched everywhere and tried everything I can think of and the car still has no spark. Here is the story.
My friend's 95 Eagle Talon AWD Turbo dies on the side of the road......he puts the hazards on so he doesn't get hit, and every couple hours, he starts the car to charge the battery, but everytime he pushes the clutch in the car dies....odd?? It gets towed to my house, because I am his local DSM fixer (I am expecting a clutch problem), and I find the car to have No spark at all. The coil and power transistor are ok according to chiltons (sucky) manual. The cam and crank sensors both put out a AC voltage when the engine is turning over, and they are getting power and ground. I tried a different Power transistor and coil pack, and neither helped. Does anybody have any ideas? do they ecu's burn up in the 95's too like the older ones? That is my last idea....... Please Please Help...... :thumbdown
Thanks

Is there any way of testing the ECU at home without another car (I have a fluke meter, and all kinds of other gadgets)? The ecu turns the fuel pump on and makes the idle speed control motor bounce around with the key on, etc......which made me thought it was still good. Does anybody have any good ways of testing 2g ECU's??
Thank you Much!
Jeremy
