Troubleshooting no spark

I've got no power to any of the plug wires everything else works. Car ran fine and then two days later nothing. Fuel is working according to fuel on the plugs.

Is there a fuse that only effects the ignition? I can't find one on the diagram.

I'm guessing that both coil packs going out is unlikely so i'm thinking it could be the igniter but where is it? Any specific grounds to look for?

I did find a two wire harness with the wires burned off. It's under the manifold from having the sequential system removed and wasn't connected.

Use the wiring diagram for the ignition and check all grounds and the 12 volt source to insure they are functional. Check if the igniter is putting out a signal. Check if the ECU is putting out a signal.

I've got constant voltage at the coil packs. where is the igniter located?

What's a good way to check the signal I've got a klein multimeter that probably won't work.

What are the chances of my power fc being bad?

The igniter is left of the brake booster on the inner fender panel.
A volt meter can measure many low HZ signals.

Do not do this at home unless you know what you are doing and how to do it.
