Ignition Trigger

Hi All

My car died on me whilst parking today (102 engine TSZ ignition system). Cranked OK, fuel was OK but no spark. Traced the problem to 3 major components - distributor, coil and ignition module. Coil and distributor checked out OK on the ohmmeter but I don't know how to test the ignition trigger. So by process of elimination and crossing the fingers, I replaced the trigger unit and it fired right up. Although I fixed it, I didn't like doing it by process of elimination. So how does one test the trigger module?

BTW being unsure of the problem I opted for a cheaper HUCO brand vs the Bosch at 3 times the price. It did say Made in Germany on it.

Regards
Oreo
