7AFE 1.8 help no spark

Daily driven 1995 Corolla DX 7AFE 1.8

One day driving home car dies. Can't restart engine cranks and doesn't turn over. Wait 30 mins it starts and 2 blocks later engine cuts out again so I tow it home.

Pulled spark plug wire and cranked the engine no spark. Troubleshooted and replaced=

-new coil
-new igniter (external)
-fuses/relays ok
-cap/rotor ok
-made sure fuel pump ok
-timing belt ok
-tensioners ok

Still no spark/start. Help... what else have I haven't checked. Inside the distributor is a condensor that's wired harnessed on top of the distributor to the igniter could that need replacing too?

-Aloha

Remove the coil wire from the distributor and check for spark when cranking. Check to see if the coil is receiving 12V DC at the plus terminal with ignition switch on. Check all the wires to the distributor, igniter and coil. You can check the distributor but I don’t have the specs for this engine. If you are concerned about the condenser, use an ohm to check it for shorts.
