1986 420 SE with Electronic Fuel Injection: where is the reset button to re-start the car after changing the coil? There is no juice going from coil to distributor thus no spark to start car. There is juice into the two coil terminals tough. I seem to recall that there is a re-set button somewhere under the dash driver side? Any assistance will be appreciated.

If its got juice to it, it should work. sounds like the new coil might be a dud, put the old one back in and see if it works.

I did put the old coil back on and it didn't start either! I think I was very careful in connecting the wires right, but could it be a crossed wire? there is only four wires going to the 2 posts atop the coil and be posts are different sizes so it only goes one way. I checked the ground strap and cleaned it but no juice. Now there is a wire that connects down at one of the retaining bolts: could it be crossed with the one atop the coil and produce no juice?
