help please, no power to ignitor/coil

Hi everyone,
Iv been adding a few extras to my car recently and tiding my engine bay up but when i have come to start the car up last week it would not start its just turning over!

After spending all week trying different things we worked out it is not sparking.
Now we have tried changing the ignitor and leads, checking earths, loose connectors etc. there appears to be no power going to the ignitor/coil.

Does anyone have any ideas what else to check is im really fed up now?? :(:confused:

cheers

did you check the earth over at the driverside mount?and the gearbox side?

if the earths arent on correct it wont fire,have you checked if there is power goin to the ignitor?

did you check the big ones for the altanator?not sure on glanzas but you need a socket to take them out,there big 50/80amp fuses,black and orange in colour

hard to really guess over the forum,but i feel your pain,i had a similar prob and i went as far as changing engine looms,my heart was broke:mad:
