Hello,

First check to see if you have power to the coil. The coil is not getting power it will not produce spark.
You can check for power using a voltmeter.

This could be also due to a faulty ignition control module.
And of course, you could have a faulty coil.

Take a look at this guide it covers on how to check the ignition system:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
