Default 1992 3.3 cranks but no spark.....

Hi all, trying to fix my mother-in-laws van for her.... its a 1993 carivan with a 3.3. It just cranks and cranks but does not start..... checkt to see if it had fuel pressure and it does, so i checked the spark and nothing, i replaced the coil pack and wires and still no spark... so i replaced the crank sensor (tach does not move when trying to start) and still no spark. Im out of ideas now. Im getting really tired of driving here around!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

ps. the only code i am getting is 12 (i think... im not with it now)
