Exclamation trailing igniton coil probs

if i am not getting any spark from either side of the trailing coil, should i immediately assume that its bad or are there other factors in this part going out. is there any way to check if the coil is still good? can the igniter assembly be the culprit? maybe the ECU? I have no clue so any help will work! Thanks

First check grounds...then if that fails go to your local junk yard and pick up a spare and try it..when i rebuilt my engine i had a coil go bad just by sitting for too long(5mo).

Startup fixed due to vacuum leak at rear of manifold under Intercooler
power low and seems as the spark is still not firing in T2 100%
cheers for help anyways

I had a trailing coil pack act weird on me before. It would skip and fire on occasion. I had to adjust the TPS and it was fine then. Firing as normal and not missing a beat.
