I got it stared.

I run a hot direct wire to the PCM.
I guess there was a shortage in the hot wire somewhere.

If your getting no spark to coil, then cps sensor is bad, if you are getting spark
Threw coil and dist. To plugs then your cam timing has jumped.

What have you checked so far other than you have no spark?
Fuel pump running?
Fuel pressure?
Injector pulse?
Please advise.

Your going to have to check fuel pressure and injector pulse so we can narrow this down. Can you hear the fuel pump running?

To check an ordinary test light and connect it to the terminals of any injector connector. Have someone crank the engine as you watch the test light. You're looking for the light to "blink" which indicates an injector. No blinky/no pulsey.

Hi. I have a 94 Mustang GT. I drove into a big dip along the side of the road while parking. It was a pretty hard hit. No problems right after the hit. As days passed the engine would crank but it would not fire. It could take a few minutes to fire. Then it was about 10 minutes of cranking before it would fire. Once started it would run great, no miss or anything. Now it won't fire at all. There is no spark while cranking. I changed the ICM, coil, cap and rotor. The wires and plugs are newer. There is fuel pressure. I checked connections. I have the right voltage while cranking. I can't figure out why it won't fire. There is voltage at coil while cranking. What else could be the problem. I have never had a problem with the car prior. Thanks

You said no spark-if the pick-up coil is defective you won't get spark-also I suggest you check the fuel pressure if its within specs-

When you say you have power at coil all the time. One side of the coil should be power the other side should flash when cranking if it does the pick up and module should be okay I believe the t/y wire at the coil should flash when tested with a test light. Also possible ccrm located in passenger front fender area under inside fender well could be going bad.
