Question
I have a 2002 escalade and the spak plugs do no get any spark
Alvaro,
I'm a Parts Professional, NOT a Tech. This is stated in My Profile but will offer some thoughts for your consideration.
Your Escalade has, what is called, "Distribtorless Ignition". This means it has NO cap or rotor. It has little short spark plug wires. The spark comes from, what I can see, the coils. IF all 8 plugs are not firing, I'd suspect the ignition switch or the computer. IF it is just one plug, I'd look at the wire and coil for that particular cylinder.
Other than these thoughts, I'm at a loss. Like I said, I'm a Parts Professional, NOT a tech. IF you have no luck when you check out the other plugs, I suggest you come back to All Experts and find a Tech, NOT a Parts Professional. Good luck, brother.

Heretofore, I will NOT answer any mechanical question. I am not qualified and can only offer speculations. You are better served by others that are true Techs. With that being said, please only ask about parts and locating obsolete Auto Parts. Thank you. I have the ability to locate quite a few mechanical parts for American made vehicles fron the 1900`s to present. Some are OEM and some are aftermarket. This would include engine, brake and chassis parts. Body parts and trim are VERY difficult to find but you may inquire. If you need assistance in repair, I have illustrated books for major American manufacturers that show some illustrations BEFORE 1974. If needed, I can supply repair manuals for your specific vehicle. PLEASE REMEBER I'M A PARTS SPECIALIST, NOT A TECH!! Thank you.. Skip
