Default No Spark on fireup

Guys,

I'm trying to fire up the car but it has no spark.

Fuel is coming through fine, but no spark.

Any idea's urgently please ?

Try the green fuses (big square ones) behind the battery. Had this problem and took me ages to find.

Tried the green fuses and still no joy, I'm starting to pull what hair I have left out.

I've changed the MAF sensor, still no joy.

Can anyone tell me where the Coil pack's wiring leads too please ?

have you checked the crank sensor under the alternator? the terminals might have corroded or it may have worked its way loose.Make sure it is plugged all the way in

check the coil packs for cracks. The plugs lead to the loom under the inlet manifoild. I think the clear plugs go to the two front coil packs and the two black plugs to the back if that makes sense.

Thanks for the idea guy's, it appears it was down to the Neutral posistion sensor.

To get pass this and start the car, we had to bridge the 2 pins on the connector to fool the ECU it was working.
