01 ss no spark! Need help I have a 01 camaro, that is not getting any spark, i have went through everything i can think of to try and diagnose this problem, and can't figure it out. Also the fuel pump is intermitent, it doesn't kick on, but odly when a autozone scan tool is plugged into the diagnostic port the fuel pump comes on. I live in Clinton Township, MI, and am willing to pay someone to come help me figure this out.

the only code that it throws is for a coolant temp sensor, which i broke during the header install, the car fired up last weekend and i drove it around the block, parked it in the driveway and polished the rims went to start it and it wouldnt fire just turn over. i pulled a plug and grounded it on the headerl it didnt get any spark

A friend pulled his coil packs off, and when he put them back on, they were grounding to the covers, and you could see sparks... might be worth a look. But I would expect at least one cylinder to fire.
Also, you might want to have a look at the relays.

Usually if the tach moves the cam position sensor is good. Not always, but usually. If you checked the grounds on the back of the head and they are good and are certain there is NO spark from any cylinder. I would lean towards a bad PCM. CHeck the 2 plugs at the PCM and make sure they are secure.
