ok, so I found a thread where someone posted a diagnostic series of tests (taken from a RX7 board) and followed what it said. All grounds are good, the power is hooked up like you said, Vinh, sensors are plugged in (except there is one question I have: I believe the crank position sensor is plugged in (behind the starter) but there is a plug hanging from that area. It has 3 pins. There also seems to be a sensor in the oil pan (oil level?) which has 2 pins and has no plug for it. the wiring harness is for a manual, and the engine was with an auto tranny when we got it, so is it the wrong harness?)
And as for the no starting, I did some more testing. I'm not getting my noid light to light up, so the injectors are not getting anything. this leads me to believe that there may be something wrong with the PCM. To further my belief with this, I hooked up the OBDII plug, and it doesn't seem to be getting any signal, it just tells me to turn the car into run, when it is...
I want to test the PCM (which we got flashed to rid various things (VATS, 2 O@ sensors, limits, etc) in another car, but don't know anyone who has a compatible car (1999+ f-body, I believe). Is there a way I can test the PCM myself? I am very positive this is it...
