the factory ignition live isnt fused, but if its had an alarm or immobiliser fitted this may tap into it and the stereo could have blown an alarm or immobiliser fuse? either that or the coil has been bodged into some other ignition feed on fusebox. off hand check fuses 17 and 18

Incase it didnt work is there a relay in fuse box that controls spark from key ignition switch
All my fuses are good but i guess if its works when he fires 12v down it it cant be a relay because its passing through and firing lol confusion lol

if when bypassing the switch and putting 12v down the black wire your car fires then that tells you the switch is bust
