I have heard that the helms manual has the wrong firing order - double check against the FSM. ---

Go to honda-tech and search the hybrid forum for “won’t start”, and go through each thread. I’m sure you’ll find the answer there (which is probably what you should have done in the first place). ---

the distributor may “look” ok but the ignitors can fail without warning. If you have your stock civic dizzy sitting around, pull it apart and see if you can swap them, I am pretty sure those are interchangeable ---

> [@95mx6](#): > > the wires and plugs are maybe a month old and worked good. The cap is new as well and is corrosion free, and the harness is clean. Im getting tons of fuel pressure from all the times ive tryed to start it lol. well something is causing the eletrical current to stop at the end of the dizzy. If you are not getting current from the cap to the wires, you have to go into the dizzy and see if the current is correctly flowing thru the button to the contact points on the cap. once you have determined that the current is flowing thru the button to the cap, you have to check why the dizzy is not producing electical current, which would make me think it is the wiring. ---

It’s not an ignitor. Already swapped with a known good one. I have a tach reference at the ecu and on the scan tool, coil resistances measure to spec. I’m not sure what happened with this car I only know it’s been a pain in the ass. I’ll know more tomorrow. ---
