Checked fuses and all okay. It seems to not be getting spark when tested with an inline spark tester. Also not showing any codes on OBD2 reader. Tried replacing coil pack but did not fix. Had a full tune up including plugs and wires in Feb 2019. At my wits end at this point. Please Help!

Hello,

This sounds like you could have a problem with your vehicle's Crankshaft Position Sensor[CKP]. Your vehicle's Power-train Control Module[PCM], or "computer", uses the signal from the CKP to synchronize the spark and the fuel injection timing. Without this signal your vehicle will not start or run. In the diagrams down below I have included the instructions for the removal and installation of your vehicle's CKP from the vehicle manufacturer along with it's location. Please go through these guides and get back to us with how everything turns out. Happy New Year.

Thanks,
Alex
