Yes, a lack of spark or fuel in a 1994 Mazda MPV could indicate a malfunctioning Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM is responsible for controlling the ignition timing and fuel injection, so if it's faulty, it may not send the necessary signals to these systems. However, it's also important to consider other potential issues such as faulty sensors, wiring problems, or issues with the ignition system itself before concluding that the ECM is the problem. A thorough diagnostic check is recommended to pinpoint the exact cause.
Do you have spark at the coil? If not it could be the coil but I would put my money on a faulty ecm. Happened to mine and the repaired ecm fixed it.
check the ecm fuse
you probably could but would not be wise b\c ecm looks and meters fuel injection you could trough fault codes and for sure ruin your fuel economy
If it has no spark, then could be ignition coil or ignition control module. If spark, then fuel related. Would need to check fuel pressure. If the fuel pump is in the tank then should hear it hum for a few seconds when turning key to on.
There could be any number of problems causing a no start condition. No fuel, no spark, bad timing, clogged fuel filter, bad fuel pump, ECM bad, ECM fuse bad, Ignition fuse bad.... Too many to list.
Stuck/faulty fuel pump relay or possibly a faulty ECM.
The cps other wise know as crank position sensor shows the ecm that the engine is turning over and then the ecm turns on the spark and the fuel to allow the car to start. If the cps is bad the ecm won't see the engine turning over so in turn it won't allow fuel our spark.
ignition module failure or ecm failure.
Could be several reasons. Start with checking the basics like fuel and spark. If you're losing spark it could be a bum ignition module or a bad crank sensor. If you're not losing spark, check fuel related issues like a plugged/dirty fuel filter then if the fuel filter checks ok have a fuel pressure test done. Even a bad MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor could do that. Also, have the ECM checked for codes.
bad fuel pump, bad ignition, ecm wires removed, clutch safety switch, about a million things -berettaspeed15 bad fuel pump, bad ignition, ecm wires removed, clutch safety switch, about a million things -berettaspeed15
junk it
It doesn't have a crankshaft sensor, it still uses the distributor. 1995 4.3 and earlier do not use a crank sensor. Spark is contolled by the distributor and the ECM. Check for spark when it doesn't start. If it has spark but won't start check for fuel pressure. My guess would be a faulty fuel pump, very common with GM trucks.
