Before I get flamed about the millions of threads covering this topic my has a unique spin to it.

I have read the other posts.

I checked cam and crank sensors.

Im getting spark.

getting fuel to the rail.

checked all relays.

Ecu is good

im just getting no injection.

If im getting fuel and spark. I should be getting injectors to fire because they run off the same current and switches ?

I have dsmlink v3.

I was having a freind do some basic tuning. Car was running. Then we turned it off and it never turned back on.

Is there something that in link could disrupt the injectors?

We set igntion timing took it around the block. Turned it off and it never turned back on.

How common is it for a black top to go bad ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Im stumped on this one.
 
Check the resistance between pin 4 and pin 2, and between pin 1 and pin 4. The resistance between 1 and 4 shouldn't change and be around 5k ohms. The resistance between 2 and 4 should change smoothly as the throttle angle changes. With the tps disconnected make sure you have continuity to chassis ground on pin 4 from the harness.
 
So to update this. I had another set back. I tested wiring. Tested sensor. Both tested out good.

At this point I was at a loss. So I removed the sensor and purchased another one. Only then when taking out the sensor. I looked at it and found a small part of plastic lodged in the spring. Causing it to stay wide open.

My car is haunted by dsm gremlins . Im adding that to the list of weird issues ive had owning this car :/
 
Luckily Steve pointed you to the TPS. hahaha, i had to bro. Seriously tho, im glad you're up n running. Glad it wasnt a really serious problem and you got it sorted soon as you swapped it out.
I hate to see anyone with a down car, we all know how it feels. Spending 10 grand or 20 and fighting problems over and over, right?


I am surprised it wasnt the wiring though. Had to be one of the 2
