Car died roughly in idel, and now has no spark
I checked the EFI + ign fuses: OK
Father in law replaced Module, nothing.
Now how do you troubleshoot the ign system with a multimeter?
The car is 3hrs away in bumfuk egypt where parts take a week, I need to walk my father in law through this, so I can get the parts and no have to return.
Thank you in advance

It's likely going to be the coil. I'd suggest FIL pick up a $20 Haynes or Chilton manual at a parts store, Barnes & Noble, Walmart, etc. Tests are pretty well covered along with drawings.
FWIW
YMMV

the haynes book has been a lifesaver for me.

I've had to replace my wheel bearings, power steering pump and altenator and I've saved heaps on mechanic labour charges by using the book and doing it myself.
