No spark.

I’m stumped, I can’t get my ‘73 1800ES to produce a spark either at the plugs or the coil wire. The fuses, ground straps, and wires are in good condition. I have voltage at the ignition coil to the + and - plugs as well as to the coil wire. I checked the main fuel injection relay to make sure all the wires are in check and that it was grounded properly, it is. I have continuity across the brown wire that connects the main relay for the fuel injection to the coil. I replaced the ignition coil and the condenser. I have checked the continuity of the coil wire and tried replacing it with one I know works. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
