    My guess it is that the crank sensor is out, motor won't run. You can have that checked.

    Firstly, take your battery and have it tested. It might just not have enough cold crank amps to start the vehicle.

    Next in line is the alternator, make sure it is putting out the right voltage and amps. Ensure that every connection is tight or properly grounded.

    If you know your battery and charging system is okay, then start looking at ignition stuff. Your spark should not be orange, it should be somewhere between blue and white. Orange means not enough juice or fouled or improperly gapped plugs. Since you already have a "low voltage" indication, I would suspect the plugs and wires and coils and everything is alright. Check your battery and alternator before you go any further.

    hmmm maybe its your ignition coil. the code you put up means low bat. voltage so you may need to replace your battery. Maybe it has enough to crank it but barely that.
