turns over but no spark
Time for some help.
At the club race at Lime Rock two weeks ago I had an issue with no power to the coil, I ran the race with a jumper to the hot side of the coil and the car ran fine.
When I got home I put the DME relay from another car in and it fired up.
(this is a 924S which has the early under dash fuse and relay pannels)
Last night I screwed the aux. fuse pannel back up and removed the ignition switch to disable the steering wheel lock (racing requirement). Completed the job and we're back to no power to the coil.
Again if I run power to the coil it starts right up.
Thoughts?

ok...the +12v from the red battery wire (take apart the wires on the positive battery teminal and clean them real good) goes to 30 of the ignition switch...
and when the key is 'on'...out on 15 of the ignition switch (black?) to the coil...no fuel pump/DME relay involved with the coil so have a good look at the battery terminal wires & key switch
go to:
