I am hoping someone has an idea of what is wrong. I have a 93 Toyota Camry. Have had no issues until last week. Car started fine, but just stopped. It felt like I had run out of gas. I was still in our driveway. The battery is new, checked battery cables, ignition coil, module, distributor cap and rotor, spark plugs. When I turn the key, it cranks but there is no spark. I have had 4 people who are fairly knowledgeable about cars, and all are stumped. I appreciate any ideas. Thank you

How is the timing belt?

I forgot to mention that the timing belt was replaced last year

. Check all under hood and under dash fuses with a test light or multimeter.

. Check for codes.

. Replace the coil and Ignition Control Module, if they have 125,000 miles or 10 years on them. These are the two items that account for most no spark situations. Old distributor caps, rotors, and spark plug wires often cause coils and ICMs to fail when they are not replaced every 60,000 miles--high secondary resistance causes the high voltage to turn on itself.
