The coils should be grounded to through the chassis at their mounting points. Use a test light to ensure the black/yellow wire is getting 12V.

Also check that the engine is indeed grounded.

Is the CAS plugged in? Do you have 12V at the coils as mentioned above?

What do you mean when you are looking for a ground? The entire chassis is ground?
