Hiya

I have got a Vauxhall sintra that has recently needed a ignition barrel fitting which has been done. But the car has got no spark and will not run!

Thanks Kate

Turn the ignition switch on and check for power at the coil if so test the coil, distributor pick-up coil and the ignition control module if not check the ignition wire back to the ignition switch

Thank you so much for your help. But the other half has realised that he has broken the ignition switch that the ignition barrel goes into.
