Can you be more specific? Have you got spark, fuel?

Does it run at all?

start at the beginning...

have you got the ecu plugged into a laptop to check there is actually a map on it?

if so, is it set to run for wasted spark checked all the other settings?

If the ecu has power and a crank signal, it should fire.... They're the things i'd be checking.

would be far easier if you could get hold of the software and plug the ecu into the laptop,
then you can see what the sensors are doing etc.
there are settings that might be wrong or anything mate.

I just look at my ecu, and it tells you via the changing led colour if it has power(red), then crank signal(green).
Does the system you have not have this then, as I thought they all did.
