Hey was only jokin, but if u can come around friday and i can check that i have the wiring around the correct way buy looking where yours are would be fabulous! i have a some wiring hanging down from the gear box and i havn't got a clue where it's supposed to plug into!
Sound slike u had the samew problems i had... i done pretty much everything here, as well, as replace the whole wiring loom from the ECU to the Engine, and its worked fine ever since... it then stopped again last month, but we change the ignigtion module on the dizzy, and its work fine ever since.
I had this problem for a month last year, and it magically started, and a week this year, which was when i replaced the wiring loom... this problem seems to be common, do a seach, you'll find it all over the place, including on skyline forums, even occours in old skylines with the rb30's
Good luck mate, hope it works out

don't ya hate it when its got everything it needs, but it just won't work! Got a old 250cc 2 stroke motorbike that was working, then suddenly stopped. Its getting heaps of fuel, and heaps of spark, heaps of compression. nothing looks wrong with it, but it just refuses to start!. lol
well, if u want to check if the injectors are putting out fuel, take it off the manafold, and turn over a few times and see if petrol goes everywhere. Might recomend taking the power connector off the coil also when doing that

pastical thanks done that!
never thought about changing the whole wiring loom!
have lot's of idea's fella's just will put them into practise tonight and let u know how i go!
anyone want to be my support person and give me there number if they are a wizard?
good idea pastical, but i'de recommend putting the injector facing into a container so the fuel doesn't go to waste

When my vl stopped starting, apparently i had no injector pulse. confirmed this when i put a pulse light in place and it didnt light up.
The loom was very easy to change, everything plugs back in to there normal spot. I took my wiring loom for the engine bay out of an N/A Exec. All i had to take off the old loom was the Knock Sensor. I sat at my car for days, and my dad sat back 'it'll never start'. when i changed the wiring loom, it only took just under 2 hours, dunno, wasnt really paying attention, was eager to get the car going. When I did have the loom in and in place, started the car, 1st turn, and didnt miss a beat
Im not saying the loom is the choice, but i had the problem twice, and, both at the same time of year, in june... so if for some stupid reason my car stop's starting in june, im gonna scream.

have injector pulse, was the first thing i checked, took the injector of the na vl and hooked it to the loom, and what fuel it did have in it spat out!
i have everything, fuel spark etc just want go broom for more than 5 second's it does kick over and start, but just stops
i'm worried that the vl calais alarm might be causing problems! is there a way to disable it
and the 2 boxes under the drivers side of the dashboard what are they what do they do?
like to thank everyone with all the help except RB30-Power :P your comment help heaps!
just like to say i seem to have had heaps of problems with the wiring, and every time we fixed one problem we got another, so it might have seem that i contredicted my self at times, but was only saying what the engine was doing after we fixed a problem we found
well it all came down to that stupid little *****ing diode! It was broken, corroded put them 2 broken bits together and she kicked over straight away!
here's a pic
one again thanks everyone!
O thank richo for you help 2 bud
thats 2 electrical probs in two weeks i reckon we need a problem solving area on this site now
at least we have a little brain on here to save us cash a mech or auto elec would have raped our pockets
give monstas4 1000 kudos for working out posibility of what the problem could be with my engine from my dribble of infomation i gave! he was on the mark! mmmm was only out buy about 2 inches in location!

thanks bad, couple more days and she would have started! cause the fuel would have been all over it and the spark plug would have kick it over big time!

wel thats different 2 every other problem i've eva heard, good 2 hear she's right now, but 2 make sure the car doesn't do it again giv da throttle a spanking in an empty parking lot as punishment.
btw im not responsible for anything bad that might happen while u punish ur car
monsta you must READ to much.
Notice where it said " they worked before but now they don't"
In another part that you have highlighted it stated that he didn't have 12 volts. he didn't say I have 0 volts.
He asked if anyone had similiar problems and I put it to him that this MAY be the problem. I didnt say it WAS the problem.
Oh yeah I'll go down to opsm if you want me to but I'm a do'er not a study as many books as I can read person.
This is the reason why people with knowledge dont bother making comments on this site- because of heroes like yourself.
Congrat on finding problem Poohkies

When you try starting it are you using the throttle or not. Maybe it has something to do with the TPS as my old car used to cough and splutter at certain positions when you held the throttle down. Therefore if the symptoms are at no throttle like mine was at say half throttle you can not start it. Make sense??

I'm an industrial sparkie and troubleshoot electrical problems everyday. If i'm labelled a hero for trying to help Calais Turbo members using the experience i have in this area, so be it.
