2001 Limited Ed. Won't Start.

Hi!

I have this Limited which has a 2.4L Non-Turbo engine that seems to have a decent spark, and the injectors seem to be spraying fuel into the cylinders, but there is just no ignition, not even a thump, spit, or sputter! I had a P0200 come up on my scanner momentarily, but I cannot find on the PT Cruiser sites diagnostics pages what that code means. Has anybody ever had this type of problem (code or no-start)?? I've tried everything I can think of.

Thanks in advance!

I have an update to my problem. I found a list of codes with meanings. P02xx has to do with the injector circuit malfunction (for xx=cyl. 01-12). P0200 says only injector circuit malfunction. What does it mean?

I did some reading on this, and it indicates that the circuit is being interrupted. It is what sends electrical signals to the injectors, it shows that the circuit is open, or grounded (go, no go), it may require replacement of the circuit, or it may need the ground tightened or established (broken lead), you did not say, will the car run? If so, does it run well? If it runs rough or not at all, the circuit board is the culprit, or the connector. A quick call to chrysler with the error code may yield you something to check for. I admit, I could find nothing on PT Cruisers, but the same error code applies to many vehicles, and this answer came from Ford.

Good luck
