My 02 lancer won't crank?

It's not fuel related i shot gas through the throttle body and the engine won't crank or anything. I'm only getting fire from one coil that's the passenger side and i also was wondering do this car have a reset button. The driver side coil have power running to it but it's not firing, I changed the coils around and it's doing the same thing. I checked all the fuses.

Update:

thebax2006 is a jerk. my husband posted a question under his own username on this same subject last night and he (thebax2006) gave him some good advice that sadly didn't help. so this morning I just hapen to be online and my husband posted this question under my id. So mr. thebax2006, when a man asks a question you give advice, when a woman asks they're going to mess it up? Thanks to the others wo looked pase the avvie and answered the question seriously.

    You need to have a switched ground coming from the ecu to fire the coil. Sounds like a broken wire or a bad ecu driver. Technically this is called "cranks but doesnt start", as opposed to "no start, no crank" -- which is usually starter related.
