92 940GL 191K - Regina equipped best I can tell. No symptoms except mild hesitation pulling away from lights within last week or two. Starter cranks, engine will not fire. I ran the diagnostics on the ECU and got 1-1-1, no error.
Ran the idle switch test with no error, then ran through the ECU activating the FI components but nothing except clicking, whirring, etc. Checked the FI fuse and it's OK. Checked plug and coil wire connections and tested for spark at one plug (assumed all were firing if one fired). Read lots in FAQs and in a Chilton's book. Don't own a multi-meter and never used one but could get my hands on one. The Chilton's troubleshooting sounds like it could take days. Got a couple of ideas from the FAQs but please offer suggestions on quick and dirty troubleshooting, process of elimination tricks (if there are any). Thanks.
