I have a 92 dodge van it turns over but it won't start. I did a power test to find out that I wasn't getting any power tp the coil nor the pick up. What could be the problem?

Sorry for the delay in replying. Did you figure it out yet?

The ignition coil will only have 12 volts for one to two seconds after you turn on the ignition switch. The voltage won't show up again until the engine computer sees engine rotation, (cranking or running). If the voltage is missing during cranking, suspect the crankshaft position sensor or the camshaft position sensor in the distributor.
