Not getting 12 volts to coil

Thank you for showing me some basic skills. Because resistance was higher on the other side of the bukhead connector for the # 16 wire, I think I'll pull out the # 16 blue female pin, and others, if needed inside the bulkhead, clean them, and see if voltage to the + coil has increased above 9 volts, when I try to start the car. Turning on the lights was a good idea, because you got some current flowing to test concepts, and I appreciate the concept of checking the 'distant' splice by inference from a wire that is asleep with lights on.
Sure. Glad to be have some help.
This link in the earlier post should help with seperating the connectors and removing terminals.
