I checked the red wires by turning the key in the on position. With all the other wires I checked those by putting the clip on the battery and those showed power also. I'm sorry I should have said that before, but I did follow your directions step by step.

Was I suppose to check the non red wires with the key in the run position also, because I only hooked up the clip to the battery, but with the red wires I checked them with the key in the run position.

Are you reading my replies?Because I posted in a earlier reply how to check the non red wires to the injectors and what iam looking for. You really need to read what I post or reread if need be because its hard enough to help someone fix there car over the internet but then have to repeat myself over and over again makes it even harder.I try to help as many people on here as I can so when I have to keep repeating myself over and over that takes away from others I could be helping.I have cut and pasted from a earlier reply to you what to do with the non red wires to the injectors. Take the alligator clip hook it to the positive side of the battery and test the none red wire at the injector connector crank the engine the test light should flash.

Good evening I checked the injector pulse as you said and the light was blinking I'm guessing that means the non red wires are also good. The camshaft sensor was also changed just to be on the safe side

We did those test and they all showed power going through those wires. I'm trying to get the information off of the article you sent but it will not allow me to go pass the steps you have already walked us through. What should we check next?

Then if you have no spark looks like your coil pack assembly is bad. So you have no spark to any of the cylinders?

There is no spark to any of the cylinders, and it's funny because that was the first thing that was changed out on the car, but I know the could have defects also brand new. I will buy another one and see what happens from there

If the terminal tightness is good everything else is there for spark.
