I have a 1998, V.W PASSAT 1.8 turbo auto trans. There's no fire getting to the coils, I bought brand new ones, and still no fire. The eng is turning but won't start. What else can I check?

I am attaching the wiring diagrams for the Igntion/Engine system. They are labeled 1of2 and 2of2. You can put the 1of2 on the left of the other, line the wires up and have a complete diagram. Follow the circuit and test for 12 Votls until you find where you are getting 12 Volts. Then you will know that wherever it stopped moving the elctricity in the circuit is the point past where there is voltage. Find the short, bad ground or bad component from there to the coils and tht is how you find the problem.
