Have you checked the pickup coil in the dist to see if you have a broken wire on it. To check you need to remove the dist cap an rotor then you will see 2 small wire in the dist. Gently tug on the wires to see if one is broke off of the pickup coil and if so you need to pull the dist and put a new pickup coil on it. If that is ok then I would take the module in the dist and have it checked I think I might do this first as when the module goes out it just will not allow the truck to fire. Hope this helps.

There is not really a negative primary coil wire per se BUT ...............

The 2006 carbureted models have a three wire 83B connector with #3 wire being BE/O Front coil wire carrying the primary current supplied from the #2 W/BK wire to and through the front coil primary circuit to the ECM (#2 wire being W/BK and supplying current from the Stop Run Switch to both front and rear coil primary circuits at the same time) and the #1 wire being Y/BE Rear coil wire carrying primary current supplied through the W/BK wire to and through the rear primary wire #1 to the ECM. So, current comes to both coil segments (front and rear) simultaneously, passing both primary windings by two separate wires to ground through/in the ECM until the ECM opens each circuit independently of the other and thereby collapse the current in each primary winding into each secondary winding at the appropriate time to fire the respective spark plug.

The 2006 EFI models have a four wire 83B connector with wire "A" being Y/GN Power supply wire; wire "B" being GY/BE and the ION sense wire to the ECM; wire "C" being Y/BE Rear primary coil segment and Wire "D" being BE/O Front primary coil segment. Again current comes to the coil through the Y/GN "A" wire and passes through the front primary circuit to the ECM via the BE/O wire until the ECM opens the circuit which collapses the front coil primary current into the front coil secondary circuit inducing a high voltage current which then bridges the gap and fires the front spark plug and through the rear coil segment primary circuit to the ECM via the Y/BE wire until the ECM opens the circuit which collapses the rear primary current into the rear secondary circuit inducing a high voltage current which then bridges the gap and fires the rear cylinder spark plug.

I hope this answers your question whichever 2006 Softail model you have.

Check the plug wire from the ignition coil to the distributor cap.
If you haven't already, replace the distributor cap and rotor.
The GM Vortec's have issues with moisture getting inside the cap and rotor and causing problems.

No current in wiring plug going to the coil / no broke wires 04 escape 3.0L

Follow your coil wires back to the connectors for the ECM the wire could be corroded from cutting insulation to check previously or the coils connector check for continuity of the wires all the way back to the ecm

93 vortec V6 4.3L No start. New CPI, New ECM,New Distributor,New Coil,

Right at the coil is the ICM (ignition control module) These wire are known for poor male to female connection have some one crank it and you wiggle it to make contact,Also where the battery is is a power ground if that ground is corroded it will give code P1355.
