Coil pigtail testing?

Heres the situation. Have a miss on cylinder 6. Code says high/low circuit malfunction.
I replaced the coil, no improvement.
I can actually remove the pigtail from the coil and there is no change.
So I figure either the pigtail or wiring leading to it is bad.
How do I test the Coil Pigtail? What readings should I get and does anyone have the schematic to what wires go to cylinder 6 from the PCM?
Thanks. Any suggestions on testing the pigtail and wiring would be great.
I'm ruling out the injector this afternoon, just thinking toy next step.

Maybe the connector pins are out of alignment and you're not getting contact. Try bending it a little and see if it helps. Maybe a little contact grease?

Found that one was pushed out.....reseated it and the missing is "better" but still present. No codes going sinks yesterday. May put a little grease in all of them and see.
