Hello stumps.
I will try to help you solve your problem.
To be honest with you I do not see many of these vehicles in my area but I have access to information. I am proficient in electrical repair and we may have to converse to solve the problem.
There is a power transistor (igniter) in the circuit, the ECU, and a resistor condenser/assembly that is involved in operation of ignition
Does it have power on the black/red wire on the ignition coil and the resistor condenser (same circuit) when the key is turned on?
Is there a good ground on the black wire to the transistor and the resistor/condenser?
Is there continuity on the green wire between the coil, resistor and the transistor?
.Leave your answers and comments and I will return.

    The transistor is mounted to a bracket on the air cleaner box.
    This is a common item for failure.

    I am trying to find the location of the resistor.
    Bear with me.

    It appears in the diagram it is below the distributor. It has a 4 wire connector.
    Wire colors are black, yellow/red, black/red and green.
    To test this unit you need to measure the resistance with it disconnected between the black and green terminals. It should measure 2.2 kilo ohms.

What is an ignitor on an electronic ignition system

No. The ignitor is usually an ignition module mounted outside the distributor, on the fender well in most Toyotas. In early Chevys the equivalent part is the ignition module inside the distributor (which failed often). The capacitor at the base of the coil on early cars is a noise suppressor for the radio.

No spark on newer EFI cars is often the ignition module (ignitor), crank or cam sensor, or bad coil.

Check for power to the ignition module. That is the most likely part to fail after the coil.

My engine doest start. accordingly the distributor fuse doest work

The ignitors (ignition module) in the distributors tended to fail in early nissans and sometimes the best way to fix it is to replace the whole distributor with a new remanufactured one. One thing that can cause the ignitor and ignition coil to go bad is to crank the engine with the distributor cap off or the spark plug wires disconnected who told you theres a distributor fuse there isnt one

What is a ignition output signal on a 1990 honda accord , recently replaced entire distributor thats the coil , sensors, cap, rotor, ignitor. etc. i have power at the distributor, power at the coil , but...

Most of the time these distributor come with the ignition module did your, if it did and it has not been that long and is still under warranty, have it replace, if it did not come with one replace module.

My car has no spark it has a new crank senor i tested the ecm it passed so what could it be

it is mounted on the side of the ignition distributor body, here is a picture, u should also change the Stator inside the distributor, this requires you remove the distributor from the engine and then drive out the roll pin that holds the drive gear on, this is not for the do it yourself-er

93 ford probe no spark,gets gas,checked compression replaced cap

you should check power at each one to verify that they have power, which engine do you have 4 or 6 cyl? the 4cyl the coil is seperate from the distributor and the module is located on the side of the distributor, the 6cyl it is all inside the distributor, but to replace parts without verifing power is not cost effective. The most common ignition failure is the ignition module, but you still need to verify that it receives power.
