ok so i rebuilt a friends 2g motor and i just put it in 3 days ago..got pretty much everything plugged up..i just need to hook up a few vacuum lines to the wastegate and boost controller..

so thats all done and now the car wont start..wont even crank over..fuel pump works..it sends fuel to the fuel injectors but car wont crank over..battery is fully charged..i just dont get why it wont start..

ALSO.....when inside the car and i try to start it the check engine light does not come on like it should ..you know when you turn the key to start the car on the gauge cluster everything lights up..well the check engine light does not come on..

i dont think the ecu is fried..it worked before i dont see why it would just all of the sudden fry itself..


I NEED HELP ASAP !! HELP ME !!! :confused: :confused:
 
Im not sure of the cel, but if the engine doesnt even turn over when you turn the key, check the small signal wire going to the starter. If it is disconnected, the starter wont even spin. Also, check the fuses and make sure none are blown.

no fuses are blown and all of the wires on the starter are connected...i hooked up a starter button..i hooked up the wires onto the starter and i can crank it over with the button but the car still wont start..after i unhook the starter button car does what it did before..nothing
