Getting Power to the Coil but no spark leaving the coil. I kno it s electrical, any ideas on wat it could be? Coil is new but could it be the problem?

Problem came about wiring a kill switch to the positive on the coil. Something fried but i dunno wat. The switch had a light and the ground for it melted. The car hasnt turned on since. Please help in any way.

i need alot more info.. can you go into detail about how you wired that switch.

yea sure, I spliced the positive on the coil and ran a wire(12 gauge) to the interior of the car where the switch would be mounted. Thats all I did up front in the engine bay. On the inside i connceted the switch and my buddy wired the ground to a spot under the dash. Wen we cranked the car it turned on fine and then we smelled burnin so we killed it and the Ground insulation had melted right off. The car never fired up again. I kno that there is no spark leavin the coil. but there is power reachin the coil.

ok... sounds like a short circuit. im going to look at some wiring diagrams for that circuit. it will take me about 15 min....in the mean time can you clear up the pos wire spice(did you cut the wire and connect the new wire to it or did you tap the new wire into the pos wire)

turt

was the wire red/light green?

Yes the wire was Red and Light green. No I cut the positive and attcahed the POS wire 2 it. I Have since put everything back 2 the way eevrything was before the switch. The stock way.

i would start by putting the wiring back the way it was. When you turn key to "start" does the car crank? Does starter turn over?

Yes the car will crank all day long, it just doesnt start. Everythging is workin there just isnt any spark.

coil may have been damaged. the only other thing would be the ECU(computer). Start by replacing the coil.
