Default Code 15, car randomly died?

Okay. So I drive my car allllll the way from my house to a friends which is about 30 miles. Drove fine the entire time until I turned into his street and it died, CEL kicks on for the first time in about 2 months. Engine sounds like its turning over freely but it feels like its not getting spark or fuel. Jump the diagnostics plug and turn the key over, CEL Sstays solid. Take key out and back in again, now CEL shows code 16? What could cause something like this so suddenly?

Cars a 95 ex civic
Converted to manual with converted p28
D16z6

If you need any more information, please let me know.

Have the igniter unit tested and check whether voltage reaches the Blk/Yel wire attached to the coil and igniter unit.

You need a multimeter for the voltage test.

AutoZone will test the igniter unit.

Or there's a DIY method here:
