Default no spark

well guys i have no spark at all. I have replaced my ecu(when i had a transistor was blown in it) i have replaced the cap, rotor, coil, plugs, and plug wires. i am still not getting any spark. My fuel pump primes so i don't think it is the main relay. When i had gotten the new plugs i pulled them to see if i had spark with them and when i did they sparked once and won't anymore. I have tested to see if i am still getting power to the dizzy and i am. i am stumped.


EDIT: i have all my grounds attached

basically get a test light find your power then have someone turn the car over trying to start it and find the signal wire it should be next to the power but not for sure can't remember if you have signal replace the dizzy if not the problems in the ignition... its ok to ask questions bro we all started somewhere no one hatched out of there egg with a snap-on set and diagnostic skills
