The engine cranks but will not fire. I am getting codes U1110 and U1120. Any advice on trouble shooting?

All fuses are good. The fuel pump is engaging. I have checked for corrosion on the relays and in the relay box. Neither show any corrosion.

Both of the codes you listed indicate a communication error between the powertrain control module and the ABS module. I'm struggling to determine how the two issues are related.

As far as the no-start, do me a favor. See if it starts for a couple of seconds using starting fluid. If it does and then stalls, we know there is a fuel-related issue. If there is no change, it is likely related to the ignition spark.

If there is no change, here is a link that explains how to check for an ignition spark:

I understand the fuel pump can be heard, but it may not be producing enough pressure, the fuel injectors may not be getting a signal to inject fuel, or there simply is no spark to the plugs.

Try this and let me know what you find.

Thank you for the suggestions! The starting fluid had no effect. There seems to be an issue with getting spark. The video was helpful in testing that. Thank you.

Hi,

By chance, do you have a live data scan tool? If you do, can you check if there is an RPM signal when cranking the engine?

Let me know.
