Hello, new to the forum. I just completed a head gasket replacement on my 1997 Discovery and now have no spark?I checked and rechecked everything I had apart no luck. any ideas would be helpful.

 

Did you plug the coil pack back in?

 

Yes, coil pack is plugged in, and there is power going to one of the six wires (forget which one) on that plug. Everything else appears to be plugged in. I have read many other things stating the crank sensor would be the most likely issue. This issue is odd because the rover started and drove into the garage, did all the head work, and now two weeks later after everything is back together, it wont start...

 

Check all of your fuses?

 

All main fuses in the engine bay appear fine. Going to try to check the crank sensor wires today. Is there any way to test the crank sensor itself to see if its working? I know on my sons bmw we had a bad crank sensor and tested the resistance across it to check if it worked.

Also just want to restate that I DO have fuel. Pump is pumping and getting to the rail, and the injectors have power so should be firing. Just NO spark.

Thanks

 

Good, so what about the fuses under the dash?

 

Will check those later today, thanks.

 

Well I took the crank sensor cover off and turns out the sensor had some unplugged.
Thanks for all the input.

 

Hooray
