I have power to the coil pack but no power going to the spark plugs

Asked by Dunkydo Sep 16, 2018 at 02:06 PM about the 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.7L GL FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I replaced the camshaft sensor, and put everything back
together. I tried to start the car, it will turn over, and I have
power going to the coil packs, but no power going to the
spark plugs. I  am an above average mechanic, and have
tried every thing I know, checking fuses etc. and I still
can’t get the car to run.

Thanks for answering. I thought I checked it to the best of my knowledge. What is the best way to check it. The car ran fine, before I changed the camshaft sensor,just a little sluggish, and sometimes a lack of power. After I put it back together it has no spark to the spark plugs. The funny thing about it, is if I spray some starting fluid in it, it seems like it wants to start, but Barely. Would the starting fluid make it combust like that without a spark

Thanks again for the quick reply. The cam sensor basically bolted on the end of the cam with one bolt. No adjustment was available on that type. As far as I could tell I’m pretty sure there was no adjustment available
