    Default vt crank but no start.

    so i havent driven the vtin abiout 2 weeks. last time i drove it it ran fine. now it cranks but doesnt fire. there is spark at initial start so it sparks once then nothing while cranking. the fuel pump primes also...is it possible the crank sensor is shagged and not allowing spark?

    Is the immobiliser turning off, that is, is the security light off?

    all fixed!!! i pulled the coil pack and i think its the dfi module and noticed that the wiring connector for the module. one of the pins looked like it had been spread open...clamped it close together and a spray of contact cleaner and away we go!!!
