Default 98 gsr doing some test now no start

I have been trying to figure out a head noise between 2500-4000 rpm since I got this car about 2 weeks ago. Today I tried to remove each spark plug wires to see if the knocking will go away (old trick to check rod bearing), then after I remove no.2 wire the engine went to a stall. Now it won't start. I've got no spark on the spark plug, and no spark on the coil. When I tested the ignitor using a test light on the negative, it just stay lit while cranking. Do you guys think both ignitor and coil are bad?
PS. All fuses are good and fuel pump primes.

Thanks

Yes. Also I've heard you can install b18b1 dizzy on gsr right?
Just wondering if the coil and ignitor are also the same.

You probably fried the coil, but the two should be interchangeable

The ignitor are all the same, just keep the heat sink, the coil is the same.
