I have a 1995 Nissan Maxima that engine wont start, compression is good, no spark to the spark plugs. There is current to the coils. Replaced the water pump, car started up and ran nicely. After running for about 30 minutes turned off the car then disconnected the battery and reconnected the battery & now the car won't start again.

Test for injector pulse using a small bulb called a noid light. If none found, check for power supply at one side of the injector with the key on.

I have seen the crankshaft position sensor cause this problem, here is the location so you can check the electrical connector connection and if it looks okay I would replace the sensor. BTW when this sensor goes out it will no leave a code. This guide can help as well

The sensor hangs pretty low so this can get damaged by road debris. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes
