Reply to "Need Help. Car turns over, but will not spark!"

I just replaced the solenoid... but have not run a direct line from there. I assume there is one that exists... and maybe that is the problem? I will run a new wire.

The ballast resistor is bypassed, for the ignitor 3 and it has a direct power line from battery via a 30 amp relay that is triggered, or should be by the ignition switch?

That said, could the issue be any of the following.

1. Ignition switch? (can it wear out in some fashion or get gummed up enough that it would not work specifically for the coil. Please remember the car turns over, so starter works just fine)

2. Control box?

3. the rear loom?

I also assume that if the starter is running that, I have a good earth. The braided lead coming off the back of the ZF to the body looks ok?

Anyhow.. more thoughts please.
