Default at what speed does the engine turn when it is not running?

I believe that code holds true

How do you know the fuel pump is good? Have you tested it?

Default Dave has some good info for you here....

Dave says you might try searching the archives. You might discover the likely culprits are the fuel pump and the cam position sensor. Both horses are badly bruised and battered by these forums, yet they continue to return.

gluttons for punishment they are.


Right Dave?

Default Suggest that he search the Original S-cars forum for "stranded". This will find the two most likely

causes of non-starting: cam position sensor or the fuel pump (and their interconnection).

A crank but no start condition can also be the ignition switch

Default 1. Pull codes. Look for 2113 - Cam Position Sensor

If you get a 2113, you have your answer. No CPS = no start because the J17 fuel pump relay is not triggered and without the J17 engaged, the fuel pump isn't powered, the O2 sensor isn't powered and the injectors aren't turned on.

Note: The CPS can fail and NOT throw a 2113 code so a negative response does not clear the CPS as a suspect.<ul><li><a href="http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/trouble_shooting/ecuf20v.html#fcs4">http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/trouble_shooting/ecuf20v.html#fcs4</a</li></ul>

Default 2. Check to see if the fuel pump is functioning properly (link inside)

And don't just assume that it is fine. Test it.

If it tests fine, it's something else, e.g. cam position sensor or the J17 fuel pump relay.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/161382.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/161382.phtml</a</li></ul>
