Not getting power to my coils.

as the title reads, i am trying to start my car for the first time after a jspec install(45,000 miles) and i am not getting power from the car to the coils, i have checked all fuses everywhere, and power all other places(interior, horn, wipers, ect.) any suggestions?

The coils are powered by the 40A EFI INJ fuse in the engine bay.

You should have 12V on the black/yellow wires at the coils (two at the trailing pack, one at the leading).

If the EGI INJ fuse is good, but you still don't have 12vdc on the black/yellow wire at the small, white, two socket connector a the lead coil, then check and make sure the ENGINE fuse is good. It's in the interior fuse box and a picture of it is in the FAQ section on this site.

check that connection Hailers is mentioning, the 2 wire connector at the front coil pack. I have had 2 cars drive me nuts with a crappy connection there that looks good but isn't. All fuses were good, everything checked out good, but it was just a stupid little wire that wasn't in the clip right.
