Default No spark

Well folks im here trying to help a friend, He has a DOHC, and isnt getting any spark. He replaced coil pack, computer, cam and crank sensors. Still no spark. I only have one idea as far as it not sparking, On my car the pigtail on the coil pack was corroded causing it to missfire, and sometimes not start. So Im just looking for anyother ideas for the no spark! HELP!

Well, this is the same problem I am having with my neon, and I replaced the pcm, coilpack, pigtail, cam/crank sensors, fuses, plugs ect. I haved narrowed it down to a short in the wiring harness, which I am currently putting on. When I get it done I could let you know how it turned out.
