hot wire going to crank sensor
My lead coil pack is only getting 3 volts on the pulse wire and i check the crank position sensor wires and they have no power.
Is it the blue, green, red, or white thats supposed to be hot?

I could be wrong, but from reading the FSM at
http://www.teamfc3s.org/main/factory...cal_System.pdf the Crank Angle sensor is appearsa to actually be a hall effect sensor and only generates pulses. It does not receive a voltage input, but only gives an output based on a magnet passing a certain point. (I will check my car when I get home to be sure.)
The 3 volts to the leading coil may actually be fine since the ecu sends a pulse to the coil, telling it to fire. If the duty cycle was 25% on a 12V pulse, your voltmeter will see 3V.
(Turn your meter to AC and see if you get a larger amplitude (or any at all.) (Your meter may also be able to measure duty cycle and frequency.)
You should be able to test the ignition with a spark plug in one of the wires, and the threads grounded to something while turning the engine over.
