No Spark...

RE: No Spark...
Ok I wasn't sure on that part. Didn't realize it wasn't switching at all. I also don't know what exactly this other guy tested. Sometimes one person's perception of a problem isn't exactly what the other is trying to tell him.

Yeah and that's why I'm starting small. Cleaning connectors THEN going bigger. If it's not switching I would assume there would be a constant spark on 2 cylinders which means all 4 need checked to see if there is spark at ANY of them. If there is then which ones and go from there you know?

Yeah you understood me perfectly. Yes i was turning it over as he was checking them. However.. he only checked the one on the left and the one on the right... and missed out the 2 in hte middle. So should i change that little peice to the left of the coil?
he already went through the connections... nothing wrong there. They all looked in 100% condition.

In my CAPS program, it shows MD189747 and that part number is the same for the AWD too and both Federal and Cali specs. <--that is the IGNITION POWER TRANSISTOR pack. It's a long single layer plug and the plug goes to a thin, rectangular "box".
Ok, Sebba. I've searched my CAPS program and here's what I came up with.
That is for the part that is directly to the left (facing the motor from the front) of the coils. This is the part that can go bad.
The triangular part that you are speaking of is connected to the coil itself. So, that's just a plug for the coils. I don't know how that guy determined that the coils aren't switching since that triangular part is just doing a continuity check for the COILS and nothing else. It won't switch 1-4 to 2-3. That triangular plug just connects to the IGNITION POWER TRANSISTOR which does the switching. Unless the guy had a tool that connects to both ends of the plug and shows what's what on some sort of screen.
Does that make any sense?
