No Spark and EVERYTHING has been checked, HELP!!!! Options

[6G94celica]

So the car ran and drove fine for a couple days and then i was about to put it in my garage and it died. it didnt really sputter as if it was out of gas just suddenly stopped. i checked for spark and there is none. the coil has power but there is no power at any of the pins on the distributor which leads me to believe something in the wiring is bad or the ecu is fried somehow and power is not sent to the distributor to inturn send signal to the coil. i checked with a timing light to see if there was power through the wire from coil to distributor and there was none. so the coil is maybe bad but it might just not be getting the signal from the distributor. im extremely pissed about it all because i just got it running.

Also on another note did anyone else have a problem closing there hood after completing a swap. for some reason my hood is not able to close past the first latch. i think it is hitting my radiator but it is the stock radiator in the stock location so i dont understand why that would cause a problem. again any input is appreciated. thanks alot

i think distributor is just hal sensors. so you wouldnt have power to them anyway. are the coils the ame for the 3s and 5s?

Have you made sure your timing belt didn't break or jump time?
Pull off the dist cap and make sure the rotor is turning when you crank the engine.

Hall effect sensors do require power to work.
Less than 12V, but power none the less.
Regardless, Toyota doesn't use them in their dist, they use an inductive pickup.

ah got them confused somehow. anyway inductive pickup doesnt require power, does it?
