What is the problem?

I was driving and my car just died. I checked the fuel. It was good. I checked air filter it was good. I checked starter, alternator, battery and they were all good. Checked spark plugs and replaced them and there is still no spark. The car WANTS to turn over but just cant do it. Help, what is the problem?
 


If there is no spark, could be a bad ICM (Ignition Control Module (the thing the coil packs sit on)). I suppose the battery could be the issue if its going bad but if its turning over it would not be my first thought.

That said, being you said no spark, Im assuming you have checked for it. If that is the case and there is just no spark to the plug, then I would highly suspect the crankshaft position sensor, since it plays a direct role in spark.
 
Not sure on your exact problem. Does the car turn over? Or does it turn over and just not start? And how did you check spark to know that you don't have any? And how did you check fuel?

We need more info on the exact problem and the exact things you did to check everything. I can't rule it out if I don't know how you checked it.
