Hello,

This could be a problem with your vehicle's Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP). Your vehicle's Power-train Control Module (PCM) uses this information from the CKP to determine rotational speed of the crankshaft for ignition timing and misfire monitor. Without the signal from the CKP, your vehicle's PCM will not fire the spark plugs. I have included a few links for you to go to below:

I have included for you in the diagrams down below the location of your vehicle's CKP sensor. Please go through the guides and get back to us with what you find out.

Thanks,
Alex
