	Mother in Law owns an AX, and it's died Basically she was driving it, parked it up for a couple of hours came back to it and it wouldnt start she thought it was a flat bettery so I tried to jump start it but to no avail, investigating a bit further, its not sparking. as it was more than one plug it wasnt sparking on I changed the coil pack expcting that to have been the problem but its still not getting a spark. checked all the fuses I can find and they are all intact, what should I be trying next? :/

	given you mention coil pack and jo spark it sounds like an mpi engine, so I would check if there is power to the fattest wire on the coil plug, if there is try a crank sensor, if there usnt try a new fuel injecton/ignition relay, cant remember if they had a double type relay like the later cars, will be under the ecu.
