Exclamation big problems with the big bronco

i need some help. on my way to work today, the sun came up and i turned off my lights. when i did that, the old girl shut off. she wouldnt start again. it had power and would turn over fine, but would not fire. i had to get there so i took my buddies truck and havent had time to look at it yet. if anyone knows what it could be to make my job easier. its an 86 bronco fuel injected 302.

Check for power to all the ignition compontents, so first things first, check all the fuses in the fuse box, replace ones that are burned out (which is what my guess has happened), then check for spark (pull the coil wire off and use spark tester-like a funky sprak plug, you can get it at your local parts place), if no spark my guess is the ignition modual, replace it with one that you can take back (just in case this isn't the problem). once you've done this and it still hasn't fixed the problem report back here, as i need time to think oer this one .
