i got a 2000 neon, replaced head everything is hooked up. it will crank but not start it shows engine light got obd scan tool no codes showed up. its like the pcm has no power idk pls help me

 

If you disconnected the battery and the car hasn't run yet, you won't have any codes because nothing has been able to monitored for a fault. Does the battery have a full charge?

 

yes battery has full charge it will turn over but not start im just confused
dealership said something about crank and cam synchronization

 

Have you checked the fuel pressure going into the engine? Had the same problem with my 97 ram rebuilt the motor wouldn't start checked the fuel pressure and found the problem was a rusted ground on the pump.

 

uh... sounds to me like you mis the mark on timing belt if that's the code.

 

He doesn't have a code. The dealership is simply telling him that may be the problem. Wouldn't hurt to check though.

 

yea i just hate paying that $85 an hour but if it fixes it i guess its worth it only car i got

 

sounds alot like my problem after i accidently knocked a piece of plastic into the timing and it skipped a few teeth... i still havent gotten that thing started and im inches from junking it. the timing was redone by me according the the FSM. is it possible for the crank or cam to be 1 turn off from where it should be ? like maybe the valvles are working backwards from how they should idk.

*edit* Also before i got the new timing belt it was done professionally by pat and reds for a rediculous price about 40k miles ago. so i only got the belt, not the tensioner since its the mechanical one. thnx for any future help im not on the computer much anymore
