Hello All, this is my first post and a great one. ha.

I was driving along at 35mph and my car just stopped. No stutter, just "off"

Luckily this was a block from my house and I was able to just push it to the garage.

I checked the fuel pump, and that is functioning fine.

I then checked for spark. I was getting spark from the coil pack on the left (looking from front of car) but not the right. Changed plugs and wires. Still no spark. New coil pack on right, still no spark.

I have swapped the three coil packs in both positions. All three fire when they are installed on the left and fail when they are on the right.

I swapped in a junkyard ECU. Still no change. Exact same behavior. One side good, other side dead.

I will be doing some testing of sensors tonight.

Looking at the schematic for the Ignition Failure Sensor, It looks like it would take out both or neither. Not just one side.

I think there may be an issue with the wiring.

thanks in advance for the help
