ignition problems with front trailing coil

I dont know if I've missed some setting or if its wiring...

the car starts fine and runs fair. When I went to check timing on all the coils I noticed that the T1 coil wont make the timing light flash. Ive changed coils, plug wires, and the harness to the coils. Still no signal from it. When I remove the plug where and turn over the engine it will arc though.... Im not sure if this is a haltech specific problem or a problem elsewhere so I am double posting this.

I posted a reply to this and its gone now... the plug's electrode grounded itself some way or another...its amazing how it can be the simplest thing. The car is running great.

I got mega paranoid though with all that wiring and it being my first haltech install. It went pretty well though. Relatively easy. Car is running great.
