Which wires face the front of the car 2,4 &6 or 1,3, & 5. I noticed mine is set with 1,3,5 at front and am wondering if this may be the problem with my no start.
If it is wrong can I just unscrew the module and flip it or do I need to re-route wires?

Thanks
 
it dosent matter which way it is just make sure they are in the right order

all of the ones ive seen are 135 in back and 246 up fornt. if you mixed any of the wires up in there you will have bloen your ccci fuse when trying to start. that may be your no start problem
 
Checked all fuses, none blown. I am curious about the coil pack though as it came to me without the screws, wires were connected though. I think I will open it and make sure all is wired correctly.
And yes I have been doing a LOT of reading on no start, cam sensors and coil packs. This is the most useful board I have ever used;)
 
just opened up the coil to have a look see....
There is a blue wire that comes off the module and connects in series to the following; first to #3 then from #3 to #1 then from #1 to #5
There is a yellow wire coming off the module to #6
A green wire off module to #2
and a single blue wire off the module and to #4

Does this sound like it is wired correctly?
 
from a post by John Larkin;
From the connector end of the module, the blue/black is 1st, green/black is 2nd and yellow/black is 3rd. I have my coil pack so that the odd numbers are against the firewall so all those wires go to that side of the coil. The common blue wires would go on the even numbered side of the coil. The longest portion of the wire goes to the end of the coil farthest from the module connector, then doubling back to the other end and finally doubling back again in a half-length wire to the center coil. Doesn't matter if the spades are oriented the same or not.
took a look at mine and it was backwards. Switched the connectors around and it actually fired up! Ran like poop and had to keep my foot in it but I also have to solder the connectors as a few spades broke. Only ran it for about 5 seconds then shut it off.
Can't wait to get off work tomorrow and work on it some more!
 
soldered all connectors and reset cam sensor to be sure. Started up and ran it :D Still need to tune more (going to recheck the cam sensor set procedure). The first time I set it I set it on the wrong timing mark (apparently someone had nothed it already at 25aftdc previously and I didn't notice the first mark). No wonder it wouldn't start and when it did it ran like doodoo.
I am so happy!!!! IT'S ALIVE!!!! IT'S ALIVE!!!!
