Then as the code says I would check for a broken wire or defective coil. It can be accomplished with a DVOM.

My mistake. Misunderstood you. Usually if it is a plug it would be more than one cylinder. But I guess anything is possible. Try pushing it all the way on and zip tie it on.

If you want to check wire continuity while you're there here's a pinout of the plugs
