is it an EB2 Fairmont? might be smartlock keeping the car from starting. if i remember correctly, you need the smartlock bypass module.

you will probably need too put a link in the inhibitor plug in the old auto loom under the car. Then it should crank over. cheers.........

i thought with the manual ECU i didnt need play with auto wires, how ever i tried linking the inhibitor plug still no crank.

if this EB2 had smart lock and my manual ECU didnt have smartlock, would i require an IDM input wire from dizzy to pin 4 of ECU?

not sure which wire on dizzy or if this makes any sense at all???

Have you tried running 12v directly too the starter relay pin so it switches battery voltage to the starter motor-->to see if it cranks? You could just install a push button switch like on the typhoon etc ? just an idea....

engine cranks fine with wire from battery or the use of a screw driver.

i am more concerned about getting a spark, to get engine to running.
