No Spark :( please help

[10thAnnivCB7]

i just got home from towing the car from work and i have fuel but no spark from the plugs. Main relay looks good but no spark when i use the screw driver next to the spark plug. Anything i should test first ?

[10thAnnivCB7]

300-500 Ohms on spark plug wires. Is that ok or no ?

[10thAnnivCB7]

17 k ohms on all the igniter terminals and voltage from main relay to the igniter connector.

[10thAnnivCB7]

301 Mega ohms on wire from igniter to cap. That wire is toasted right ?

[10thAnnivCB7]

Inside of igniter is cooked. Off to the junkyard.

I just tried 2 other ignition coils and still have no spark. Any ideas ?

That link will help you test the coil and the igniter.

The coil had OL between terminal C and D. Chaged it with one of the ones i got from the junkyard which was not OL. Still didn't start so the igniter was the next guess. Luckly for me the rotor is pressed on to the distributor so i had to go to the junkyard and get one. I was kind of giving up until i saw another 10th anniversay which looked clean. Open the hood and no distributor. Opened the glovebox and there it was. I also took the igniters from 3 other distributor so now i have 3 of them that work and 3 ignition coils. It started right up with the distributor from the junkyard so it was the ignition coil and the ingniter. Not sure how both of them failed but its running now.Thanks ender for that link. Saved my life.

Glad you got her back and running, shame you couldn't make the meet man. It was a good time, got to meet some fellow members.

I am a bit sad i couldn't make it but i'm doing a full tune up on my next paycheck and ill be sure to keep maintaining her. I feel like i am not trying hard enough but i do work 6 days out of the week. Ender, you should have a youtube show or something teaching people what to do ,, more on the accord of course but you have a TON of knowledge.
