Electrical problem
1998 Ford Escort 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic
98 Escort ZX2 sport
The car ran, was parked for 3 days, then cranked over fine but would not start. Put small amount of fuel in throttle body, no start, Diagnosed no spark to spark plugs. Replaced crankshaft sensor, still no spark and now upon reassembly from installing crankshaft sensor, a box under air filter housing with large wiring harness makes a squealing/buzzing noise when battery connected and key turned on. Pulling the 30A fuel inj fuse stops buzzing.
Car still cranks over fine but will not start and now have the buzzing from box under the round air filter housing.
engine is a 2.0L ZeTech
not sure what the box is, haynes manual does not show it. Suspect it is a control module of some sort.
