We were going down the river and the motor started loosing power and shut off. After getting the boat back home I checked and had no spark on any cylinder. Removed the ignition wire on the stop circuit , still nothing. Stator ohms out good on both sides. Checking the trigger with it hooked to the coil pack checked grounded on all coils. Paper I had said it should have been open. Unhooked the triggers and it checked ok. Never checked the voltages I ran out of time. Will be back home in a few days any suggestions.
 
Try disconnecting the kill switch wire at the switch box (black with a yellow tracer) and see if that helps.

I have already tried that , I checked the key switch and the kill switch. Took the wire off the ignition box and checked the wire with a meter. Didn't do anything for it not firing at all.
