If the coil doesn't supply spark to the plug leads, the spark plugs won't spark and fuel won't burn, therefore car won't start.

If you can't hear the fuel pump relay clicking or fuel pump making a noise, the fuel pump wont push fuel into the fuel rail and into the injectors, Therefore no spray onto the already "no sparking" spark plugs and the car definitely won't start.

Perhaps learn to communicate using the English vernacular, as it would seem after at least 12 years of being instructed in its use you still fail to grasp some of the simpler concepts. Using this as a guide stick as to how quickly you catch on to new idea's, it would seem to be f.ucking impossible to convey the proper information to you with regards to your motor vehicle not combusting internally. Best of luck ol' Chap.

See, now that's better. Still needs some work, but your getting there. Chin up old boy.

As for the car, go and start it with your spare key.

Welcome to the forum!!!

All the guys are saying is type in proper english, not shorthand, mxit language etc.

things to do:

Check if fuel if getting delivered to the motor.
If it is then check for spark.

It there is no spark you coil could be gone.

More details on the motor? Fuel injected? Carb?
I suspect fuel injected but please clearify.

Thanks bro...
Its fuel injection... Mp9 motor.
If I connect the fuel pump straight to the battery then yes it get delivered to the motor but for the coil I can change that but like I said it started and when I tried again it just cranked... So that's why I don't understand where the fuel and spark went... I checked all the fuses and the only relay that's not clicking is the fuel pump relay... Maybe I'm missing something

Firstly start with the getting the fuel pump working.
Could be a faulty relay or a popped fuse.

Once you hear the pump priming and it still doesn't start check for spark.

Is the battery connected securely at the terminals?

Are all the plugs connected to the wiring harness plug points?

Also if the fuel rail breaks on the inside the car will not start.

Firstly don’t be disheartened about the forum. For those of us who don't use short/mxit text on a daily basis it is difficult to read your posts.
That’s the message everyone is trying to convey.

Can you hear the throttle body buzz when you switch the ignition on? If not then it is probably the ecu relay that failed, common on the mk3/6n
This will cause you not to have fuel and spark.
