Help Please: No Dash Lights, No Spark On R32 Gtr

[xfixiate]

Hoping to find some experts/experience.

Replaced water pump and rebuilt inlet side, so CAS and everything fuel/air related has come out and gone back.

Flushed fuel tank and had injectors cleaned.

Went to start it, dash all lighted up, cranks well, but would not start.

Took plugs out, strong fuel smell, plugs were wet, so injectors are working.

Traced it down to "no spark".

In the course of cranking the engine to check voltages to coil packs, my assistant left the ignition "on" for 3-4 minutes.

Now there are NO dash lights.

So:

1. Any common things to R32 GTR check for no-spark?

2. What would cause the dash lights to die with ignition on?

Car was last started about 12 months ago, ran fine.

Any assistance appreciated.

By no dash lights I mean everything, brake, ignition, hicas - everything off... when ignition is turned on

STUPID QUESTION HERE.

Battery is and was fine, engine turns over, no firing/start.

No spark, and now no ignition etc lights.

BUMP?

It took the spark plugs out, earthed the side and cranked, no spark.

There doesnt seem to be power coming through the resistor (square box on the coil pack cover plate).

But now theres no power to the computer either.

Ive checked all the underbonnet fuses with a multimeter.

check feed at switch and also the main ign fuse in the engine bay.

I've pulled and tested all the fuses, pulled every plug out in engine bay, checked, connected everything back up in engine bay except coil packs/resistor.

I now have red lights on dash again, car is cranking, injectors are working.

Still no spark though.

I found two of two pin plugs at the rear of the engine in the loom. One goes into the heater hose connector (eh?) with two blue wires and the other has a white and black wire but has a "dummy" (?) plug fitted into it. This one looks sus to me.

Any ideas?

Fixed, Pulled everything electrical apart, cleaned all the terminals, put it back together, she's running....
