Get a spark tester and when it's not starting, check for sparks on all cylinders. Here's the tester that I use: https://www.amazon.com/Lisle-20610-Inline-Spark-Tester/dp/B0002STSC6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1501325755&sr=8-3&keywords=spark+tester

I know we're kind of stepping back here, but sometimes it's best to retrace your steps to see what was missed. Because clearly, we're missing something.

Personally, I'm betting on the igniter being the problem. That's where I was going to go with having you recheck for sparks. No sparks would almost ensure a failed igniter.

So I tried to get a refund on the igniter from ebay said no which sucks. He first said that it might be my coil packs making the igniter go out? I omh'd out the front 3 coils and hot they where at 1.0? Is this the range they need to be in? Can send me specs or how I would diagnose that? Much appreciated.

Here's what Lexus says about resistance. You're within the hot specs.

Definitely do that. I still think we're looking at the igniter though, but a little extra diagnosis won't hurt.
