When I try to start my SR the starter will crank, and I know its getting fuel but there is no spark. It worked fine until I was installing a push button start. I wired the push button start to the START wire on the ECU but it wouldnt work. So I uninstalled the button and put everything back to normal. Now it won't start at all. Ive tried a bunch of fixes but so far nothing has worked:

Checked sparkplugs - Looks good
Tested resistance of coilpacks - Looks good
Tested voltage after igniter chip - less than 1 volt while cranking
Tested voltage before ignitor chip - less than 1 volt while cranking
Replaced ignitor chip - no change
Tested START wire off ECU - very low voltage
Checked IGNITION Fuse - looks good
Checked ignition switch for loose wires - looks good
Checked ECU codes - Throws MAF Code (unrelated)
Replaced MAF - no change
Checked battery connections - looks good

Anyone have any ideas? Please speak up, thanks...

Bro, check out the gear position senson on the tranny! I have some info that SR's won't start if the plug is disconnected. Take care!

check your condition of your cas, that sends a pulse to the ecu to tell the coils to fire, make sure its timed correctly, make sure the plug is on there correctly, and just check all connections, i dunno get back to me.
