Checked fuel pressure & its 50psi, checked 4 spark & have orange spark. Question is it suppose 2 b blue spark? Tried jumpstarting truck but wont start truck just cranks over

have 2 trouble codes on a small code scanner that shows:
P1192 (unidentified) control system
P0700 Transmission

Could this be an alarm related problem?

Start testing the coil-the spark is weak and also check the input power at the coil from the ignition switch.

I know its a new alternator and battery but could be bad get it load tested and then comeback and we'll continue.
