Ford Repair: 1989 F250 wont start, no spark, ford parts, test light

Question
I have an 89 F250, was running great the last year, then suddenly, stopped, I was driving it, and it died, and hasn't started sense. Unable to get any spark from the coil or plug wires. Changed the coil and still have the same problem. Not familiar with this truck, so I don't want to start tearing it apart. Any ideas?  

Answer
You probably have a faileds ignition module or stator. Easy to check with a 12 volt test light:  On the coil primary there are two wires, one is red. Make sure you have voltage at this wire with the key on, then probe the other wire, usually green, crank the engine and this circuit should blink. If it doesn't, make sure the distributor turns, if it does then replace the ignition module and the stator inside the distributor.

I recommend you use Motorcraft or Ford parts. The aftermarket modules can be a problem as far as reliability. If the distributor doesn't turn when you crank the engine, then you may have a timing gear problem.
