No Spark, please help.

Good morning,

I have been looking through this forum for about a week now on various topics. My biggest issue is that there is no spark at my plugs. I have checked resistance at the coils. Verified that the igniter is connected to ground. Verified the neutral line and all safeties as well as return from the diodes. Starter turns over and solenoid works, I can operate from the run switch. Have lighting, just no spark. Using past forums, I have validated my connections where correct to the coils and both read 11.98 prior to attempting to start. Battery is charged and rests at 12.4. I know this has been brought up before, but most people only ask for help, but don't normally post the ultimate fix. I pretty appreciate anyone's assistance on this.

I would also like to add that when I attempt to start the bike, the voltage at the coil input decreases to somewhere around 7-8V. This was someone else's project that they wherent fully forthcoming about when I got it, but everything seems to be 454 specific.

check sidestand switch and clutch switch, i cant remember if these stop the engine turning over or stop the spark.
are the coil wires on the the right coil and the right way round

Normally i only try from neutral, with the kichstand down. After trying again with the stand up and clutch pulled, still no spark in neutral or from first. Sitting on the bike, left coil gets fed yellow/red(top) and green(bottom) and right side gets fed yellow/red(top) and black (bottom). That is yellow reds to positive and black and green to negative as marked on the coil

Did a deeper inspection of my connector leads. The ground lead at the igniter was corroded as was about an inch of cable itself. Snip, crimped and it worked. Next step is the fan
