Don't have one system it is run by a Single Module Engine Controler. Pulling trouble codes would help but I doubt you could find the tester. SMEC is a big box type thing on left fender well up front.
See if power is to positive side coil if good put test light to neg side crank (probe on coil clip on ground) does it flash?
