My vehicle has left me dead after working perfectly. There is no spark at all coming to the spark plugs and coil pack.

Did you check for primary voltage to coil? Black wire goes hot with the key on. That voltage comes from ignition switch. Also, check for applicable trouble codes. If this is a vehicle sold in the US you should be able to get generic codes, using an obd2 code reader. Your local autostore should have one.

Your battery has a full charge? Charging system working ok? Battery connections all clean and tight.
