No spark
I have a 1987 Audi 200 C3 with the MC2 (2.2 turbo 10v), and I’m dealing with a no-spark issue that seems related to the fuel pump not running. Car was working fine in march, then it was left for 1 week and after that tried to start it again, didn't have any spark.
Symptoms:
- Engine cranks normally
- No spark at all
- Fuel pump does NOT run when ignition is turned on or after cranking it.
- If I manually bridge the fuel pump relay, the pump runs fine, still no spark.
What I’ve checked/replaced so far:
- New spark plugs
- New spark plug wires
- Battery is good
- Ignition coil has +12V
- Distributor (cap/rotor) is OK
- Hall sensor was checked by electric, so should be good
- Grounds seem good
- Fuses are all good
- ECU has power
What could be the issue?
