Coil pack help please!

[als2]

Hey guys, moving the s2 over to new style coil packs. New loom and packs in but she won't fire, double and triple checked everything but all good.
Before checking our cam sensors et I stuck the old one back in, fires first turn of the key.

I have the 2.0 red coils with metal bodies and my gut tells me they're not seating correctly. Any experience, ideas etc...?

Many thanks

Coil pack and POS wiring diagrams

Did you attach both grounds of the new harness to the appropriate points (back of the cam cover and the intake manifold).

Did you install the harness connectors correctly? It is possible that you swapped them.

Should be based on these diagrams:

Your old POS wiring diagram to figure out the ECU harness colours for 1-3 and 4-5 (pull the boots back):

Just figure out how the connectors are supposed to work. You don't even need the wire colours. Just count up to 4 in one connector and 2 or 3 in the other and match them to the ECU harness plugs properly.
