93 toyota corolla starter is cranking but no spark to plugs i replaced rotor and rotor cap still no spark what should i check next

Hello Joe

Clean the Throttle Body and MAF. Check for codes.

In most cases the crank sensor generates AC voltage when the crankshaft is moving. You would check it with a volt meter.
How did you test the crank sensor ?

check crank position sensor have the codes for faults.

- Check engine compression.
- Check valve clearance.
- Check spark plug gaps. (0.8-0.9 mm).
- Check vacuum leak at intake manifold.
- Fuel pump pressure too high.

So your telling me that this car is a stick and you can't pop the clutch to start it ? Correct?
I'm gonna give you a list of thing to check, good luck.

a)Do you have crank no start? (see entire write up)
b)No crank no start?, ( battery, battery cables, ignition switch,,starter relay)
c)No dash lights, no crank? (battery, battery cables ignition switch)
If you have symptom A then the affected items are , ignition switch, battery, battery cables, starter, starter relay ,coil, coil pack, ignition module ,Distributor cap ,rotor, (if applicable) spark plugs and wires.
The best thing to do is to first make sure your timing belt didn't break. As long as the engine cranks you can do this. Give the battery a 3 min charge . Then have a helper crank the vehicle while you observe the rotation of all the pulley's and belts. They must rotate together. If the vehicle has a distributor remove the cap ground the coil wire and watch the rotor as the engine is cranked. it should spin. If this is a-ok your worse nightmare is over.
Now we have eliminated the timing belt as being a cause. We now have to charged the battery again for three min and load test it( this is best done by a repair shop a load tester is expensive .If the battery if more than 5yrs old you may want to replace it.
If battery does not pass load test replace it.
Whatever you decide the rest of the items can NOT be checked out without a fully charged battery.
Check ignition switch and starter relay for B+ going to them and leaving them. Check starter circuit. Make sure B+ is making it to starter ( use a digital voltmeter). If B+ (12 volts) is making it to the starter and it doesn't crank then the starter is defective. Do a starter current draw test to verify this or remove the starter and have it bench tested.
If starter cranks now your into coil testing .
Pull a spark plug hook it up to a spark tester and ground it, now crank the engine if you get spark coil is ok and in all likelihood so is module.
If you don't get spark test for spark at the coil wire.
If you get spark here and don't get it at the spark plug wire problem is at distributor cap , rotor or spark plug wire. If plugs look bad use a fresh plug to do testing and naturally replace them.
If all of the above are a-ok.
Next is fuel checks.
Easiest fuel check is to put key into ignition cylinder and turn to on position. Lister for pump to buzz or hum. if it doesn't then check fuel pump relay for B+ going to it and leaving it and going to the pump. If B+ making it to pump and it doesn't turn on the pump is your problem. If B+ not making it to pump either the relay or the ignition switch is defective.
Naturally if the pump is defective have a repair shop do the repair . Its dangerous and a real pain.
Good Luck
IN YOUR CASE I BELIEVE YOU NEED A NEW BATTERY UNLESS THIS ONE IS FAIRLY NEW.

Have you recently worked on it? Just finished working on Corolla 93 is yours also distributor with cap and rotor button?

First thing is to ck for a spark, see if she has good spark. Next remove the cap and watch the rotor button as it turns, have someone crank the engine to see, looking for which direction. Next turn the engine by hand looking for any marks on the crankshaft pully. aligning any marks should be #1 or #4 piston firing position. you will have to do this trial and error. Next if your rotor buton turns to the left align the marks on your pully and put your # 1 plug wire at the port in the cap which the rotor button is pointing at, then next put the #3 plug wire in,next #4 and last in turn would be #2. The firing order is 1,3,4,2.which ever direction the rotor button turns. if it starts and runs ruff you are out of phase 180 degs. move the wires two ports in the cap as the rotor turns. 

sounds like you need an ignighter which controls spark and it can be found in the distributor under the cap it should have a plug (wire harness) on it.

If not cranks at all check the battery for charge, starter, fuses
If cranks no start check wiring(replace) , distributor cap (replace), rotor, ignition coil
Please kindly let me know if you need more info
Good Luck

coil is shot!
