I HAD A SMALL FIRE IN FRONT OF THE BATTERY (HEADLIGHT FELL OUT AND LANDED ON AN OLD RAG) WELL THE IGNITION CONTROL MODULE ALONG WITH THE HARNESS, AND ALL OF THE HEADLIGHT AND MARKER LIGHT HARNESS WAS DISTROYED.
i REPLACED ALL OF THE DAMAGED STUFF,
MY QUESTION IS WHY WILL IT NOT START, I'M GETTING NO SPARK TO THE PLUGS, MOTOR TURNS OVER FINE, ALL OF THE LIGHTING WORKS, STILL NO START..................:banghead:
GUIDENCE PLEASE............j!!!!

The first thing I would check is all the fuses. Even if you replaced the harness and the lights work, it's possible something else had gotten shorted with the fire and isn't working.

As denisb suggested, check the fuses and fusible links. If a wiring harness was damaged, chances are good that somewhere a circuit shorted and likely burned a fuse or fusible link.
If all the fuses and links test okay, I'd focus on the wiring for the ignition control module since you said that wiring all burned and was replaced. Obviously if the ignition control module is wired wrong, you won't get spark.
Did you have a wiring diagram that you used to repair the harness, or did you just get a replacement harness and install it? Have you checked for the right signals on the correct wires?

Thanks guys for your input, All fuses check out, and the harness is wired correctly but I cannot locate the fuseable links, they appear in the wire diagram. Where are they located, I suspect that they are fried and in need of replacing and that should give me that spark that I need......J!!
