Car has no spark. What could the problem be? Replaced the plugs, wires and coil packs. Has a new baterry, alternator, and starter, and a crank sensor. What else could the problem be?

Also, check B+ and ground at the ignition module. The pink wire is voltage, goes hot when you turn on the key. Black wire is ground.

The coil pack sits on top of ignition module. Top rear of engine. I looked at 2.2L engine, vin4.

It's possible, but, without a little testing, can't be sure. I hate to see you throw parts at it.

Use a testlite between pink and black wire, key on, see if lite comes on. Use a noid lite check for injector pulse, engine cranking.
