Hi new to this site and hopefully someone here can help me. I strated up my Space-wagon the other morning and as i pulled out of my driveway the negine and electrics just died. I changed the battery as this was getting on a bit and i have also changed the sparks as i was getting no spark from the old ones. The engine will turn over but will not start. Took 1 new spark out to test it and still no spark. Im thinking it may be something simple like an earth wire to the car body not being in place or it could be the ecu? or dizzy cap? Is there an immobiliser on the 96 space-wagon model that may have kicked in and is preventing engine from starting? Anyone have the same problem and if so how did you resolve it?
Thanks in advance

Try to reset the ecu and see if it helps. Mine has an immobilizer but it's activated by the alarm system. :)

Have you check for a spark from the coil?
