Why not cook marshmallows on my under dash fire?

GOOD NEWS

The wires that were underneath the dash that melted weren't connected to anything. They were grounding onto the body. Removed them, then bam, she turns over by key.

Now, I assume that since everything works that my underdash harness isn't fried.

What has me baffled now, is that I am now getting no spark but I am getting power to the coil. Both sides of the coil to be exact. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN WITH TWO NEW COILS?

Has the ignition switch been a confirmed fix?

Also, I want to bypass the ammeter, how? There has to be a thread on this somewhere. Since I am running an aftermarket volt gauge, I would like to run through that if possible.

Electricity doesn't like me. I don't like it either...

Thanks, DK
