    I'm stumped, when i found all the cut and melted wires under the fuseable links i just knew i had found my problem. Since the block and blades of the fuseable links were toast i replaced it all with circuit breakers like Movin suggested. i go to fire her up and she still don't fire up. I pulled the line off the fuel filter and had someone try and crank it while i watched for gas flow, nothin. So i thought about the fuel pump jumper plug put a papeclip in it and tried again still nothin my next move is going to be at the access panel to the tank to see if im gettin gas at all. im one depressed dude the thought of takin my car to a shop is really weighing on me. i know with you guys help and some time ill.get it fixed but man i missin my car

      Did you have the key on when you jumped the pump tester? Do you hear the relay click on the left kick panel when you turn on the key with the tester jumped? Have you checked for spark since fixing the fuse panel? If you don't have spark OR fuel the EGI link/breaker circuit must be open. Check both sides with voltmeter.

          ok i went to listen for a click in the fuel relay and when i turn the key i think im hearing a click coming from my circuit breaker repair, stupid question for y'all is it possible i got the breaker hooked up backwards ??? if they was backwards tho nothin should work right???

              If you were on the freeway and it died, have you checked the timing belt? Take off the dizzy cap and see if the rotor turns when you crank it. This could be the problem leading to no spark

                    Well that was just a precaution. It does seem electrical. Have you checked the impact switch on the driver's side of the hatch? There's a little red button up under the rear speaker that has to be depressed. If it's up, the fuel pump won't get power. Shuts it off in case of an accident.

                    But to recap, you're not getting fuel OR spark?

                      Rotor can be installed in three different positions. Try starting the car eith the rotor in each one.

                          I see that this post has lost inertia. Keep us abreast of what is cooking would ya?

                          I screwed around with trying to cure electronic woes for the longest time a few years ago until a buddy of mine, in having a simple look, merely loosened off the timing belt cover and smugly showed me a broken belt.

                          Man was I embarrassed!

                            LOL. Checked the belt its fine. im at a loss as what to check next. festyboy said he was gonna give me a test tree to work off of. until then im dead in the water. im still without spark or fuel. I've checked everything i could think of and went thru all the suggestions everyone has gave me. hopefully with the help of this thread the mystery will be solved!!!

                              If the new breaker clicks the wire it feeds is shorted some where. Make sure the wire loom
                              it goes into is not melted. Trace the wire looking for where it might have rubbed
                              through. Get us a wire color if you can.

                                i will dig farther into the wiring harness this evening. the circuit breakers are clicking when key is turned on. that is good to know about the clicking its got me a lil more optimistic. i was starting to lean toward thinking it might be the ecm .. thanks Movin can't wait to get home and get back into it!!!!
