420a not starting and no check engine light =/
Hello guys lets see if u guys can help over here, I was driving today to the smog shop and on a stop light my car shuts off so I start it again (I've been having this problem like a year ago , couldn't fix it) but anyways I stopped at a second light and shuts off again but this time not starting at all , battery its okay and the started its fine too, So I park it on the side but the new thing is that I want to get codes BUT not check engine light =O so my question is ECU died? or alternator? Since I bought my 420a I never changed the alternator before but I tested at autozone 2 weeks ago and it was fine they said

Re: 420a not starting and no check engine light =/
What happens when you turn the key? Does it crank over? Are your interior lights or electronics on?

It didn't crank at all when I turn the key, but yes all interior lights are on, headlights works good too and alarm.

I checked the fuel pressure and is good, but the weird thing is that when I'm turning the key in ''ON POSITION'' and crank it, there's not power to the pump, I jumper the fuel pump and it worked! so fuel pressure and pump are good.

Re: 420a not starting and no check engine light =/
All fuses are good, battery is ''good'' I bought it new about 3 weeks but just in case I'm gonna change it on Friday I have warranty. Relays are good, I already spent money on my CSP and CPS sensors. But still didn't work, it might be the alarm so I disconnect it. Friday will be my next day off so I will see after a new battery and alarm disconnected.
