97 Camry died, won't start, lights and electric good

[sampaw]

My wife was driving our 97 camry home from work last night. She was cruising about 40mph when the car just simply died.

Lights, radio, - everything electric still works great. Engine turns over, but there is no spark or ignition.

Is it the coil, ignition control, or both?

Thanks in advance

Probably the timing belt broke.

How many miles you had on yours? My '97 is about 85k and I'm going to replace it as soon as I find time.
