Hi guys i recently did a a6 turbo conversion in my vl calais. Been running awesome. Today i gave it a wash and put new leads on it. Thing was running like a gem. I nailed it up the road and it died on me. Towed it back home. I noticed that the plug that goes to the top of the dizzy had been rubbing on the timing belt and had worn through to copper. So i cut it off and joined all the wires back together. But its still not starting. It has no spark and the fuel pump doesnt come on. The ecu also has no lights. Ive tryed another ecu. Changed the dizzy twice but its still not working. I noticed the fuel pump relay had no power so i hot wired it and the fuel pump started and the lights came on, on the ecu. But still no spark. By the way all the dash lights work and it cranks over. Please help me

Have u checked the efi relay fuse ? U mentioned all but that fusible link is good ? If there good check the reverse polarity relay on drivers side power loom goin to starter motor . If it is that just bypass it .

Na was cranking but wouldnt fire. Ended up being the little connector on the battery that the fusable lunk goes into. Wen i burnt out tge link i must have also burnt out the conector. So one side had power which is why the computer and everything came on but the other side was dead and injectors had no power. Did my absolute head in haha
