Have all checks with stator & trigger okay but no output to coils from switch boxes ?

1989 XR4 150 HP 2 stroke, no spar
Checked the continuity & electrical output from the stator and all read okay, did continuity check on the trigger and shows okay. Well with all that, I went ahead to check to see if I had an output from the switch boxes to the ignition coils and bam, nothing. Please help before I buy new switch boxes, because not really sure if that is it...
Does the mercury switch have anything to do with this ? How about the detonator indicators?
I'm not a outboard guy, just motorcycles.. Help...

Disconnect the bias wire the goes betwwen the two boxes and check for spark, a bad bias in 1 boxs can stop both from firing

Before the bias test diconnect the kill wire from both boxes, that's the black/yellow wire
