My car just stopped running as I was driving it, we changed the fuel pump and it still won't start. There are no codes, we changed the distributor and that didn't help, there is no spark at the distributor. Fuel pressure is good, timing belt is fine, the car turns over but just won't start. What are more things we can do? Is there a way we can get a free wiring schematic?

My distributor has two electrical connectors, one six wire connector with five wires, and two wire connector with one wire, at the time I checked them, I didn't have a schematic, but I have a Snap-on scan tool with data display, while cranking, it shows cam signal yes, crank signal yes, cam/crank sync yes, about 180 rpm, and fuel pump and ASD relay's commanded on, and during cranking, on the six pin connector, I have 4.9 volts on one of the wires, and 8 volts on the one next to it, both about the middle of the connector at key on and cranking, I thought maybe the vref and signal circuit for a hall effect type cam sensor, but no 12 volts in any
of the other wires at key on or during cranking, I also replaced the ASD relay, thank you for your responses, need all the help I can get.

The connector with one wire is from ASD should have batt voltage in crank. Have you checked fuses in underhood box?

Yes, connector with single wire(green&orange) from A.S.D. Relay has battery voltage during cranking. I tried a re-manufactured distributor from local parts store when I first realized I had no spark in haste, but the only other thing that I can think might be the failure is the ignition driver in the engine control module?

I'm sure the car was manufactured in 1999 but it is a 2.5 2000 cirrus. It does have a rotary distributor.
