Hello,

There are 2 PGM FI relays that need to be checked because it sounds like on of them is not working here is a guide to help you do some testing.

Here are the engine wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works and the relay and fuse locations which also should be checked.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Thanks, but Im stuck. The coil on plugs have 3 wires(power,ground, and v-ref). Its getting 12.54v to each plug and ground, but not spark. All I have left, I think, to check is the CKP and ECM. Oh, and what could be making the injectors to don't work neither? I gave it some thought and checked the PGM FI relay and it was hot to the touch so I replaced it now the engine started and runs great! Thanks for the diagrams.
