Well, if you turn the key to 'on' without starting the engine, it lights up everything as a bulb-check. You ought to do that once in a while, so you can tell if any of the bulbs are burned out.

I guess it should light up with the 2nd sensor unplugged...

Well then your bulb must be burned out. But that won't fix your spark.
