  • Won't start, need electrical knowledge

    Hey there, I just got my camaro back from the body shop, and everything is fine.....except it wont start, the starters getting juice, and fuel is fine, its just im not getting any spark. I changed the ignition controle module, all the coils have the correct resistance,the fuses are all fine, and the plugs and wires are fine. My car was damaged on the right side, and opted not to have the car in ready to go form when done. When i inspected the car before i took it to the shop looked like i only damaged the light wiring harness, and all the grounds around the battery look fine. The only thing i can think of is it could be the PCM, or a grounding i dont see. Can anybody give me a suggestion, or know if theres a saftey thing the computer read, oh and i did OBDII it, and no codes came up. Please help before i break something from frustration.

        Well the fuel is coming out fine, believe you me i can smell it lol, and the fuel pump also primes before trying to kick it over. as for the compression, no i havent checked it, but what i hit came no where near the block, nor any of the sensors on it, the only thing it bent that comes clos to the engine is the A/C lines, buti took off my A/C system since it never really worked well anyway.

          if you can smell fuel then maybe its leaking

            maybe but doubt it. if he was leaking that bad he'd see a puddle. tho, if you keep cranking and it wont start you'll smell the fuel probably cuz you flooded the engine. are the coils getting signal from the PCM? check by pulling off the coil pack, and putting in a test light on the terminals for the ICM. have someone crank it and look for the light to blink quickly and constantly. no light means the ICM is probably bad. slow light means the PCM isnt gettin a signal from the crank position sensor.
