I check the CKP sensor's resistance, the reading in the voltimeter is over range of ohms (1.). This means that the CKP sensor is open of shorted? No codes in the PCM. No RPM is detected (0 RPM) in the scanner during the crank.

The primary hardness connector of the ignition coil have 11.5 V, but no spark is generated to the distrubutor. Could be defective ignition coil?

Hi,

The problem of no spark was due to open (defective) CKP.
