No spark

Looking back over this thread, you never answered my first question in post #2, so I'll ask you again.

More information needed.
Was this car fine one day and dead the next with no hands touching anything?

Sorry about, I buy it from a guy, he drove from Virginia to North Carolina everything good, he shone the videos of the truck on the freeway running, it was a barn found so the truck have a lot of dirt inside, he take the interior out and washed it inside, outside and engine, he said the after that dint turn on again. Ok I town it home check power to fuel pump, nothing, no CEL with switch, estar checking cables and fuses and relay and find out one of the cable from te battery + to the circuit opened relay was Wear out - cut by the battery, fix this and now I get power to the fuel pump, I get CEL with the switch, try to star and noting crank hard but not spark, replace the igniter, test te coil pack on a 96 land cruiser it delivered spark, buy a new distributor, because I think my was bad, put the engine on correct timing order, Replace the wires under the fuse box to the EFI relay, buy 3 EFI relay to make sure it works, and after that I make the post. That’s all. Thanks.

Some of what you wrote does not make sense to me.
There is no connection between the battery and circuit opening relay. The COR has 2 coils that fire the relay to turn on the fuel pump. The logic primary is from the starter circuit and the logic secondary is from the flap in the AFM. The load side of the COR comes from the EFI relay.

The wire that you say was "worn out" by the battery might have been part of the 3 fusible links off the positive battery terminal, but you need to verify this. The fusible links look like this:

Fusible Link for 80 Series Land Cruiser

Fuseable Link for 80 Series Land Cruiser (FLK-1)

absolute-wits-end.com

2 of them terminate to a black junction box with ring terminals and the 3rd terminates to a grey connector.
The junction box looks like this:

Fusible Link Junction Block for 80 Series Land Cruiser

Fuseable Link Distribution Block for 80 Series Land Cruiser (FLK-2)

Here is a cursory check of all 3 fusible links in system:

Dome lights working?
Brake lights working?
When you turn the key to ON does the CHARGE LAMP light up?

If yes to all 3, then all 3 fusible links are intact.

Sorry long day at work, ok in the battery the wire broken was the white with red line. My truck don’t have those connectors, the wire are attach directly to the battery. I do have brake lights, dome lights and battery charge light. Thanks for all your help.

Hello another thing is that the vehicle have an alarm system and they removed I have de module but I don’t know we’re going connected. So probably it can be a circuit breaker, but I dint find any switch, I remove the complete dashboard.

hello today I get the new ECU put it on and it star right up, thanks to Mr. Jonheld. Problem solved.

Does ECU just stop working for some reason? Also i might need one, where would be a good known source other than the dealer?

I am asking because, i am not sure how to check it to verify that its that as I am not getting no Spark after checking the following:

- Engine cranks but no spark.
- Getting fuel - Relay/Both lines/Filter/ and pump are new
- all Fuses/Relay EFI
- Spark plugs,wires and dizzy are new.
- Ignition coil new
- MAF 3 pins still stuck to board.
- Fusible Link New
- Battery New
- Ground is spot on at all locations.


The only thing from what i have read would be the ECU or this Immobilizer Alarm.

Here in ih8mud or eBay, check the wires from the battery first, check engine light is working?

 

[sreyes1103]

oh yes and CEL is on

 

[elayn77]

Check Coil pack, check the igniter check the efi relay, they damage because of the heat

 

[sreyes1103]

oh all of that is new, sorry i edited my previous post with whats been done

After some further testing looks like the power wire to the ignition coil is not getting ground. The two wires that connect to the ignition bracket are grounded.

 

[sreyes1103]

ahh it ended up that the dizzy was off! phew!

 

[CJF]

Off how?

I took it out to replace o-ring a couple years ago, but forgot to set timing back then . It has been sitting for 3 years until I started working on it again and restoring it. Finally got most of it done and went to start it up for the first time a couple days ago and that’s how it led to all of this now.
