Gti 8v agg no spark

[16VWarby]

My golf won't start after going through a puddle, no spark at the plugs. I have spark out of the coil when I put that lead to the head.

So far I've:

Replaced distributor
Searched for some info and;
Timed crank / cam
Timed dizzy

It's not long had a crank angle sensor.

What else should I look for? Need to get it going ASAP as I've no transpose atm.

Cheers

Best is to plug into vagcom and scan for faults. It'll tell you if it's a sensor that's faulty.

try the ecu relay number 30 ,, when you turn key can you here it ?

[16VWarby]

There's no vagcom on the island that I know of but I own a snap on ethos and it was showing no codes, however now I can't get any communication.

Relay seems to be clicking...

[16VWarby]

Just got communication.

Intermittent engine start blocked by immobilizer

And

Intermittent hall sender signal out of tolerance

Now I can't get communication again

I think the water has messed the hall sensor then, so it won't fire up. Don't know why the immobilizer would come on after a water incident, but maybe water got into the ECU?

[16VWarby]

Thing is I've put a tested distributor assy in, with hall sender etc. I'll take the ecu out and check for water ingress...

[Khare]

Check the hall sensor plug too, there may be water there shorting it out.

The coil is sparking underneath. Is this f**ked?
