Not getting 12 volts to coil

Mattax, even with the damaged connector housing on top the valve cover,, I hooked up all connections, and the dome light was off with the door open. Bad news. There was 12.6 volts going into the bulkhead at wire A1B-10R, but if I removed the bulkhead connector module and checked for continuity between that male terminal and its mate, the bulkhead female, there was no continuity. Inside the car, I unhooked the steering column connector and also got no continuity between its corresponding male connector coming from the bulkhead and its female connector, cavity 16, at the bulkhead. To add injury to insult, a tiny, baby cat has parked itself inside the fender well on top of my drivers' front tire, but my wife said we don't have to worry about my car starting and hurting him/her.
