what else would cause me to have constant power to both sides of the coil? the negative tach side of the coil does not pulse when cranking. i already changed the module on the fender 3 times. what else could it be?

THE TRUCK IS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After all this time, the problem was the green wire on the coil. The wire was rotted and corroded and actually broke off the connector today. I cut the wire, stripped it back and attached it to the coil, and the truck started right up and runs great!
