Re: T5 Cranks, but Won't Start
I'm actually no longer getting a tps code with the vehicle. That was solved when I reattached an extra wire to the coil which someone installed on the vehicle. I believe it must have something to do with the alarm system because that was installed afterwards and didn't come from the factory with it.

Mhmm... Dealership added it, once I get the car running I want to rewire it so it actually looks good.abscate wrote:Ugh - troubleshooting someone's undocumented, non-stock wiring...

Making progress, but still haven't fully sourced the problem though. Just had the car fire today.
Anyway... Long story short, traced the wires from an ecu schematic which lead to that grey relay at the top of the rad with one connector including 4 wires. So the relay isn't closing the circuit when the ignition is on or the car is turning over. Popped the cap off the relay to check if it was okay inside and everything is clean. Also jumpered the relay and it works fine. So, plugged the relay back onto the car without the cap, closed the circuit and the relay on the other side switch, turned the car over, fires right up. So as the relay opens the circuit, engine quits. What is this relay controlled by or what would cause this???

that's your problem, as long as the wires are good going to it. get new relay for the fuel injectors. that relay and the 103 fuel pump relay are known to go bad.
