Assistance needed: Testing ignition system for spark
I am getting no spark at distributor and have replaced it with used one as well as new coil and igniter but no luck besides only a couple times vehicle started (after coil replacement/prior to tow) but eventually wouldn’t start after several diagnostic tests (tests pass) via test light at distributor igniter/coil. As a result code for ignition output appears and have found out that test light will light up when connected to negative terminal for igniter/coil with out vehicle power on and won’t pulse upon cranking. (Test light connected to positive side and not negative for test - [didn’t pass]). Any suggestions as to reason of results since not sure what to inspect.

Update: Ok, so just re-checked test and looks like it doesn’t light up on contact since I removed (-) wire to icm pin this time... I will try exchanging icm’s... prayers please
