Angry RS Coils and Injectors not firing

Hi all.....I've been trying to start my swap for the first time for over two weeks and when it finally started it ran very rich and would not idle at all. After several trys I decided to pull some spark plugs and that's when I noticed the RS wasn't firing. There was not even a gas smell on the plugs. I checked for power at the fuse in the run position which it has, so if anybody has any other ideas please chime in. By the way, I have a PSI harness, FIC injectors, and a Frost mail order tune so I'm guessing that I should be good in those departments.

Ok, my coils on the right bank has power but the injectors don't so I believe the problem is with the injector wiring not the coils. Next up will be an ohms test to see if there's a short somewhere. I know the coils and injectors use the same circuit.

Found the reason why the RS injectors did not have any power. There was a opening in the wire that feeds power to that banks injectors where all four tie into the feed line. I popped out that banks fuse and inserted one of my ohm meter probes. I then stuck the other probe in one of the injector plugs hot side. As I started unplugging the other injectors the ohm meter needle jumped to the other end. I chased it down to that junction and the wire came lose in my hand. Now I hope to get this thing running within the next week. Wish me luck cause I need it.

Yea I hope its the only issue to. Had a few other minor setbacks but when you change up the entire power train I guess stuff is bound to happen. Plus I'm new to EFI and FI so its been a slow and knowledgeable process.
