R33 12V To Coilpacks Is Gone?

[lstef11]

hay guys i have a problem and for the life of me cant find the cause

car is a s1 r33 one morning i came out and started the car started fine as u usual was sitting there idling getting ready to go and it just stalled would turn over but not fire. Traced the cause of that back to the coil packs i have lost my 12v to the coilpacks, for the time being i have tapped into the 12v on the side of the engine bay and it starts perfect(will this hurt anything by the way?) but cant seem to find out why the 12v in the loom has gone. Is there a fuse for that specific 12v to the loom or could it be something else ?? any help would be much appreciated cheers guys.

Stuffed ignitor module maybe?

Series 1. The coils all run off an ignitor. Your ignitor is likely goosed or at least has a dodgy connection.

sorry should have added this before the loom on my car has been changed to a s2 loom and coils and as i said the car was running fine before so i know its not the wiring on that thats the cause ??

Try looking at fuse number 3. It feeds an ignition relay above the ECU that pulls in when the ignition is turned on and sends the 12V to the coil packs.

under the dash or boot box mate?

There are a few 12V relays just above the ecu in the passenger kick panel. Can't remember if its the blue or brown one. You should here them click when you turn the ign on

I just checked the manual and the ECCS relay is closest to the door side and the ign relay is closest to the front of car in behind the kick panel
