If you look at the WD on EFEC-118, only the firing signals for the coils come through the 7-pin connector. They need power and ground to operate, and those come from completely different places. Ground comes from F39 on the block and F28 on the chassis, and power comes from one of the Green fusible links by way of the Coil Relay E5 and wire-to-wire connectors E12:F25. The best tool for checking those is a bulb-type test lamp. Start at one of the coils. I can't read the wire color for the power leads, but ground is Black and the triggers are a different color on each coil, so power will be whatever is left over. Check from that to the Black wire on any coil connector. The light should light up brightly with the key on:
1) If it lights brightly, the problem isn't coil power or ground. Post back and we'll check some other things.
2) If there's no light, check from the power wire to battery ground. If that lights then your ground path for the coils is open. If it doesn't, then the coil fusible link is blown, the Coil Relay is bad, the ECM isn't turning on the relay, or there's an open in your wiring.
3) If the light is dim, do the same test to battery ground as (2). If that's bright, then you have high resistance somewhere in the ground circuit. If it's still dim, then the resistance is in the power side of the circuit, most likely a pitted Coil Relay or wiring problem.
