Hello any ideas please.
Drove into driveway stopped car, next morning turns over but no start.
plenty petrol no spark.
new rotor, new cap, new coil ,new crank/flywheel sensor
power at coil but seems not to power up to fire on secondary
as if no signal telling it to cut power to primary
where does that come from? help
still no go
are there any other relays modules on the starting side of my clio mk1 williams

Ignition relay would be my next thought, just buggered if I can remember which 1 it is in the relay box

ignition relay is that amongst the wire mash at the battery side box, no alarm or roof as mk1 cheers

does this relay tell the coil to stop the charge to primary coil hence making the 2ndery coil throw the volts to plugs

That's the baby, will be 1 of the 5 (or 6 iirc) brown relays that are attached to the lid

Unfortunately I have no idea :oops:

hello checked relay and seems to be ok, but looks like what ever the flywheel/crank sensor tells is the issue as power not getting interuppted to charge second winding on coil and then surge to spark, what does the flywheel sensor tell ,, anyone know. cheers o yes and where would this be on the car, i dont mean where is the flywheel sensor lol
