I was driving on freeway with overdrive on got off freeway turned off overdrive and car just stalled. Engine will turn over but will not start. Hooked up an OBD2 meter and the meter will not come on. Tried starting fluid has no spark. Fuel pressure is okay.

Hi,

The first thing I need you to check is the "Room Fuse" located in the vehicle. Under the dash on the driver's side is the joint junction/fuse box. If I'm reading the schematics correctly, it should be fuse 7. If you look below, I highlighted fuse seven's location.

Check the fuse first and confirm its condition. If it is good, I need you to check to see if power is both to it and from it.

Here is a link you may find helpful:

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
