NO POWER AT THE COIL!

To test, I connected a test light to the wire coming to the coil from the battery and grounded the other end of the test light. I did not test the wire going to the distributor from the coil. I had the switch "ON" and a friend cranked the engine. What is my next step? There does appear to be a resister attached to the inner firewall, North of the Push Button Starter Switch as suggested in another comment by McGarrett
