car is a 89 coupe ka24eas the title says my car turns over but getting no spark.

short version:coil is good, getting power to coil, check fuses by batt. and ones by driver foot.

long version:i was driving my car the other day and the wiring harness that goes over the top of the raditor came loose and hit the fan and cut a gray wire inside that wire was a coated and non-coated wire. i spliced the 2 wires together and now the car turns over and no spark is comming out of the coil checked the fuses by the battery and the ones by the driver side kick panel. had the coil tested and its still good. unplugged the plug connented to the coil and there is power going in to the coil. is there any other hidden fuses or any thing?

tx for any help

How do you know for sure its not getting spark? Did you check the fuses under the air box/intake filter?
