Car won't start. Help!
I have a 2000 Maxima. My car was running when the wires from the ignition coil connector (I think) touched and sparked. My car died and hasn't started back since. It turns over but it's not firing. The fuel pump is priming when I turn the key and all my electrical components (dash lights, radio, ect) are coming on. Anyone have any idea what I could do? Someone said i might have fried my computer? Thanks

Replace whatever you fried when you shorted it.

I'm not sure I understand what your problem is. Try explaining it with more detail and context.

Run a scan. What is the status of your security indicator light with the ignition off and on?

The car cranks over right? Check your ignition Fuses first. If it is blown fix the coil pack connector first (junk yard has plenty)! If there are no fuses blown check for spark, if there’s no spark check your ignition capacitor.

Under the hood is a fuse block. Check the 15 amp fuse labeled ENG CONT 1.
