Brother Maynard, Consult the Book of DeLorean, Chapter M, verse 18:04: And the lord spake, saying thou ignition ECU shalt thou have power to provide voltage on wire white/slate, provided thy most holy fuse #1. In other words, the module must have power to power the coil. You said fuse #1 is not blown. Ensure the module is plugged in and seated well. I've heard a story about a guy who wiggled his plug a mm and things started working. Also, ensure you're checking the voltage correctly (key in "run", one probe on + and one on - on the coil. Mike will attest that if it's electrical, I can fix it but it's hard for me to put it in my brain correctly through email. I do better with it in front of me. Oh..wait. Epiphany: #1 fuse isnt' blown. Fine. measure voltage at the fuse, and then trace the GREEN wire from that fuse to the ECU and measure 12 volts at that end of the green wire. Verify that the ECU is getting 12 volts. The ECU is simple. It gets 12 vdc on the green wire, it has a black ground to chassis-ish somewhere, a shielded black wire to the dizzy to control dwell and such and then white/slate to provide coil power.
