As some of you know I'm in the process of completing a 1MZ-FE V6 swap into my 94 GT and I am currently having starting issues. I started troubleshooting a few days back once I had the motor installed and all the wiring connected. My findings so far; There is no CEL, I have 0 spark on all 6 cylinders, there is fuel pressure at the rail, and my compression numbers are:

cyl1 - 200
cyl2 - 200
cyl3 - 200
cyl4 - 196
cyl5 - 198
cyl6 - 205

I also don't get the CEL with the key in the "on" position, and as richee3 indicated this means the ECU isn't getting power. I was hoping it was something simple like the igniter, but with no power to the ECU I will try and diagnose why there is no power before buying anymore parts. Today I will check all my fuses and relays with a multi-meter. I would also like to know the ECU power pin locations for the 1MZ-FE so that I can check those as well. This way if power is present at the ECU we can assume that the problem could be a bad ECU. Any help would be great guys!!

Thank you
Lamont

ok yes its pink because this is going in an ST correct? I dont have my spreadsheet for your build in front of me but the ST celica its a pink wire. OK good it has constant voltage.

ok with A23 not getting any power you need to check the EFI relay. have someone listen at the relay anr turn the key to ON, you should hear it click.

another thing to check is the COR (circuit opening relay) its the relay right next to the ECU for the fuel pump. with the key in the ON position, make sure you have power at pin 2

also check the fuse IGN, its a 7.5 amp fuse.

when I get home ill get my spreadsheet out for you and see what color wires are supposed to be

This is going into a 94 GT. I will check the relays and fuses tomorrow. It is too dark to see anything now.
