I'm guessing you made certain the front plug wire was seated on good and snug.

If all else the only thing I can think of being wrong would maybe be the coil itself.

yes the front plug wire is seated , so if the coil is bad does that mean the ecm is bad too?

No, might just mean the coil is bad and that's all. Check the connection to the coil though. I see you have an 04 XB. Are you still under warranty?
