OOPS, wait a minute, if you get a small spark when you touch the
coil housing to the tranny, then there is current flow through the coil.
You may have bad connections that limit the amount of current flowing
through the coil. Or part of the coil is shorted out. You need to
measure the resistance of the coil and clean all the wiring connections.
