Question Ignition Problem - '90 300E

Won't fire. Have 12 volts to both sides of the coil but no spark to plugs. Have new cap & roter installed. Bad coil (how do you check it)? Reference sensor? Overload relay? And...how do you check these out? Any help in heading me the right direction is appreciated.

Question Cranked the engine....no fire!

I cranked the engine...no spark at the plugs or coil. How do I test the coil?
