Van just quit running while driving. Injectors not firing. Replaced cam sensor, crank sensor and fuel pressure solenoid. Checked timing twice no problem there.I do have 5 volt and 12 volt on cam sensor. 5 volt on fuel pressure sensor on rail but no voltage on signal wire when cranking. Any thoughts on this?

Hi,

This vehicle is not offered in the US, but I will try to help. Interestingly, you have power to where it is needed. Does the vehicle start right back up after it stalls? Do you have scanner that can identify freeze frame data?

Let me know.

Joe

Do me a favor, plug in the scanner and see if there is an RPM signal when you crank the engine. If there isn't, recheck the crank sensor connection and wiring.

Let me know.

You are very welcome. Let me know what you find. Again, if there is no RPM signal, the first suspect is the crankshaft position sensor.

Take care,
Joe
