Vehicle listed above is an lxx model. No spark, arkham had the fuel pump replaced because it was stalling going down the road. replaced the pump still no start. check for fuel is check for fuel cylinders are flooded. pulled the plugs no spark. our pm gauge jumps a little bit when turning over. have code for throttle position actuator that is on. already replaced the MAP sensor. any ideas of what to back trace to test the wiring going to the coils has 5 v. so gas is not the problem. crank position code no cam code.

Hi,

If you have a crankshaft position sensor code, that is the likely cause of no spark. Can you provide me with the code?

Also, take a look through this link and see if it seems to mirror what you experience.

Let me know the code and if the link seems to indicate the possible problem.

Take care,

Joe
