I see what you mean now..

In the auto biz, CRANK means the starter is turning the engine over , and turning the engine over does not mean the engine RUNS.

The term comes from the old cars with a Hand Crank that one used to start the engine. Cars now have a Starer motor to do that Cranking job.


So, what you have is a car that does crank over, but does not Start.
My first suspect on that car would be the OVP relay
Check the Archieves ..tons of info.

And when one mentions Check Engine led , we assume you mean "Check Engine " lamp is on.

Just terminology, but diagnosis is determined by it.....

The tool you made is not a Check Engine led , it is a Falsh Code retrieval tool.
