Q: Car won't start continuation
So I recently got a response from one of you guys ( Jay Safford "Hi there. You'll need to check the ECM data to see if there are codes and also to see if the camshaft and crankshaft sensor are sending signal to the ECM. If one is not working, then replace the faulty sensor. If you'd like help having this looked at, enlist a qualified professional, like one from YourMechanic, to come to your location for an inspection of the no start and assistance with the correct repair." ) very informative. Unfortunately you guys don't service my area so I was hoping to be informed on how to check those two sensors the proper way. Also is there anyway you guys can direct me to a wiring diagram for my car. Please and thanks for all your guys help.
My car has 155000 miles.
