Coil pack

[Michele]

New coil packs 2006 dodge caliber start it the two outer ones dont work shut it off start it again two middle ones dont work why

how did you decide that the coils aren't working? Why did you change the coils to begin with? Which engine does your Caliber have? (1.8L, 2.0L, 2.4L) and what is the production date of your vehicle? Is it produced in 2006 but a 2007 model?

all the coils get their power from the same source. So, if one has power they should all have power. The PCM controls what coils fire and when. I don't know how long you are cranking the engine to decide what coils are working or not but does the engine run? Is it running on only two cylinders? Does the scanner say cylinders are misfiring?

what is the whole story of what is happening and what has been done so I can try and figure out what your problem with this car is...
