11.75volts at top coil-on-plug connector pin. Battery is a tad weak at the moment.
From looking at the mazda diagram, Power then ground, then signal, is the pin order for the 01+ connectors, descending from the top.
I can watch the trigger signal when I probe the connector with my multimeter. Yet, no spark output. I've tried 4 different coils.

So I fired up the old tunerstudio.
I have pulse width at the injectors. YAY!
I would imagine that means I have spark output now.
Perhaps my weak battery couldn't properly fire the coils? I have fuel for sure now, I can smell the flooded cylinders.

The plot thickens. Fuel is there.
However my timing light and multimeter both confirm no spark current through the coil wires. Would having signal and ground reversed have cooked the coils?
The main screen now says: Ready/Cranking/RPM Sync/Full rpm sync.
However, "SPK1/2" does not turn green. If it were to be green; Is this the idiot light for "yes, you have spark"?
