I was driving my car and it suddenly stopped working. We thought it was a fuel pump. But my mechanic just said there’s no spark going to the coils, or the spark plugs so the car won’t start up.

It sounds like the crankshaft sensor has gone out, but to be sure we should check all fuses, here is a guide that will help:

Here are the fuse locations in the images below, if the fuses are okay, we should do a CAN scan, you can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon here is a video to show you how.

Here is how to change out the crankshaft sensor as well in case you need it. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
