Hi i have just put a fiesta turbo engine into a mk6 escort i have got the starter motor turning over and i can get the fuel pump to run but i cant get a spark!!!! i've done a continuity check on all the wires to the coil cps and edis modual and all are good i've got a live(+12v) while cranking to the coilpack and edis but still no spark.
How can i check the edis module?????
Any tips or advise much appreciated.

What flywheel, crank sensor and crank sensor bracket are you using? (exactly)

 

Thanks for the reply its all fiesta turbo i broke a fiesta turbo which run fine before i took the engine out so flywheel is fiesta crank sensor is fiesta and the sensor is in the block as on the standard fiesta turbo.
any ideas??????
Cheers,
Phil

 

The only reasons you won't have spark are :-

- Duff EDIS module
- Duff Crank sensor
- Duff Coil
- Duff wiring between any of those items

You don't even need a working ECU to get spark!

 

i understand that you don't need a ecu to generate spark what should i be getting on the coil plug i have a live on the centre pin(2) and earth pulses on the coil to pins(1&3) when cranking is this correct if so i must have a duff coil pack or shagged leads the plugs are brand new.

 

Got this running today. Supply to the coil was shit would show +12v while cranking unplugged but when you plug the coil in and tested the voltage it would drop to +8v no good!!!! run a new supply to the coil via a relay and it fired up first turn thanks for the replies.
