from what i see you don't have a CPS. the ecm uses the distributor to locate the cam/crank.
for "no spark" condition,
all info points to the distributor cap/rotor, ignition components in the distributor, ignition switch, or a bad ecm.
obviously that's barring an open circuit somewhere. bad wire or connector.

It ability a difficulty replaced into detected interior the crankshaft sensor circuit and interior the throttle physique circuit. you prefer a qualified grasp mechanic to diagnose it extra effective. do no longer in basic terms replace the areas. If i replaced into engaged on the motor vehicle i could erase the codes and enable them to reset back in the past making a decision. a competent test gadget will additionally study the engine information so a mechanic can study the readings to the specs the areas are meant to be at. make advantageous all the battery cables and posts are sparkling. verify the engine floor connections.

Crank sensors are usually located somewhere on the side of the engine block. Not often easy to get at.

it's on the front of the engine below the harmonic balancer, not that hard of a repair job
