Hi peeps, probably raised the question before?

2013 with 113k on the clock, full Honda history. Car died as I pulled up outside the house. Cranks but no start, no warning lights and no codes. Fuel supply and spark is good. Timing chain is good, rev counter picks up when cranking.

Ran well before this with no miss fires or starting issues?

Healthy battery.

Unlike the 8th gen there doesn't appear to be a PGM-FI main relay or Inertia switch to test?

Going to test injectors... which I don't think are firing?

Going to do a compression test and check cam sensor.

Any other ideas would be helpful as I am getting p*$$ed off with the car and tempted to weigh it in for scrap!

Going to have a look at it, bugger is underneath at back of engine. I just don't want to start replacing everything to find the fault. I thought position sensor chucks up a code and creates miss fires etc.. before giving up?
