ok well i will have to do that tomo. i get my chip for my key tomo aswel so hopefully i will put the x16xe ecu and transponder in and it may fire. because like you said it may not work on the x14xe ecu and transponder.

Ok then you need to get a multimeter out.

Plug for the coilpack will have 4 wires.

Put the negative prong of the multimeter to the brown wire, and the positive prong to the black wire and check for power when not cranking and when cranking.

Do not go near the black/red and black/yellow wires.

I wouldnt be too sure of this either especially if there is a large year gap between the engines.

I had two x12xe blocks and they were 4 years out...... turns out the ecu on the older one couldnt work with the coilpack on the newer block as it used a different signal.

What richie is saying is that if you have a dodgy earth on the engine, make a lead up. This will then earth the whole lot.

I dont think the x14xe ecu will let it fire?

To test for an earth just make a lead up and run it from the battery to a bolt on the block.

well the light was flashing because i am waiting to get the chip but i am using the 1.4 ecu atm just to get it started.

still no spark tho

Is the engine management light flashing? Have you got the transponder chips to match the ecu for the x16xe?

I have just completed my conversion from the x14xe to the x16xe and currently i am not getting a spark!

what can cause the no spark, engine is cranking everything else is working?

any ideas?
cheers
