Default No spark

Hi my ZVH converted fiesta has suddenly died on me and iseant producing a spark on any plugs.I pulled plugs and seemed fine so then got a multi meter and checked loom plug connecting to coilpack to check voltage and everything is fine here also so i then pulled 1 lead at a time and tried for voltage inside lead while turning engine and no voltage here so basically what im asking is is it likely to be the coilpack or has anyone ever experienced all 4 leads fucking up in 1 go?? And also anything else that could cause no spark apart from this?

The coilpack will have 12 volds regardless of whether the CPS is working. The quick way of checking the CPS is by putting a Noid light on one of the injector plugs. If it flashes your CPS is working.
