Coulda swore I answered this......

Verify the wire from coil to PCM. Make sure there isn't a break in it.

Yes that's been done. I am at a loss on where to go from here. Everything that could be thought of has been done and still nothing. Trying to find anyone else that has been down this road and was able to find a solution. It is nerve wracking!

If the PCM is seeing both cam, and crank sensor signals....... it *should* be firing the coil...... I cannot think of any reason why it would not. Two bad PCM's with the EXACT same problem in a row though, that does seem highly unlikely.

Did you actually get a replacement PCM? Or send yours out for repair/replacement?

Are you getting injector pulse?

Originally sent it out to be rebuilt, shop said they could not rebuild it so ordered a new one. That one didn’t work do warranty replaced it with another new one. Still having the same problem.

Does the fuel pump run while the engine is cranking? If it does, that would point at yet another bad PCM, or a bad connection for the coil ground at the PCM....... Since you are actually getting injector pulse....... it would seem the PCM is indeed seeing the engine turning.... so, everything appears to be working correctly EXCEPT for coil control.

Fuel pump runs with 50 psi pressure during cranking.
At this point it HAS to be the PCM, but considering this is my 3rd one I'm just having a hard time accepting that.
