What do you check next if your 89 Mazda 323 with a new coil won't spark when turning it over?

In: Mazda 323

[Edit]

Answer

I assume you have new spark plugs, ignition leads, distributor cap and rotor. Also verify that you have 6 Volts at the coil negative terminal when the igniton switch is in the "Start" position. If all the above is correct, then the problem may be the trigger module in your distributor. I suggest getting a replacment from an auto-wrecker (cheaper than new from the dealer.

Good luck Malcolm
