Default Need help with no spark on a Trailboss

I've got a 01 Trailboss 325 that's not got that many hours on it and has always run spotlessly.

Went to start it the other day and nothing happened. Pulled the plug and checked and I'm not getting any spark.

I've got a little mechanical ability, but diagnosing ignition issues isn't one of them. I did put a meter on the wire on the CDI that goes to the coil and it show continuity to ground. Is that right?

Can anybody give me a "Ignition Problem Solving For Dummies" lesson real quick or point out anything I should specifically look for.

Thanks for the help y'all.

Did you try a new plug?? Old one could be fouled out,reason for no spark.Igniton systems pretty reliable on the 325 and 330. Spark is a little weak compared to other models even with a new plug when you ground out the plug on the head to check. OPT
