E6X Problems

I have an 91 TII with an E6X I am installing. Here is the problem:

Try to start and no spark and no fuel. I attribute it to something either wrong in the setup or the wiring. I tried 2 different ways to wire the CAS but still no results.

Hitman style
CAS - Haltech
white/black - blue
white - red
red - yellow
green - green

and

Diagram style
CAS - Haltech
white/black - red
white - blue
red - yellow
green - green

The injectors aren't disabled or anything. I am running 550's and 1600's (all low impedance), but I don't that is related. I have checked the ignition wiring and everything else I can think of. I read through the entire Haltech manual. I have tried multiple base maps available online to see if there was a map error or something.

Any ideas where to start looking? TIA

if RPM and timing doesn't change when you turn the key over, it's not getting the CAS

Is the wiring correct to the CAS as shown above? I tried 2 different CAS units and got the same results.

Thanks for the help 93BlackFD

New updates.

When the CAS is out of the car, and you spin the bottom I get fuel and spark and the ECU registers RPM. When you re-insert the CAS in the engine, no RPM, fuel or spark.

Ideas?

Exactly what 1revvin7 said. You need to go to your trigger gains and make sure that both triiger and home are set to internal reluctor. Then set the gains to "2". Also make sure your battery is charged completely. A lot of guys installing the new e6x have found that the stock battery was not providing enough volts while cranking. After setting the gains a battery upgrade has solved the problem on 4 different peoples cars. Try a fully charged battery and higher gains and you will get spark.

Trust me, it wasn't the gains.
I had suggested changing the gains from 0 to 7 - none of it made a difference.
Finally, the problem was traced down to a "tired" battery.
