May be missing in your reply but as can be reviewed in the attached image....
As Patton mentioned, you have a splice off the switched +12Vdc feeding power into the ignition plate, red conductor... The splice block from the Dyna has caused others issues versus splicing and soldering the junction....
Defineitely verify +12Vdc or higher is at the ignition plate feed into the pickups.
Also, infollowing the static alignemnt tests, not sure you answered this or I just didn;t understand but in doing so, if your auto light is turning on & off accodringly on the green or balck conductor feeds into the coil then the Dyna ignition is not your problem...
In other words, as your rotating the magnet rotor via the crank rotations to 1/4 & 2/3 TDC..... No light/DVM +12Vdc then either no +12Vdc to the ignition plate or both pickups are shot...
Is it possible both sensors are shot, sure but my gut feeling is as Patton brought up, missing +12Vdc to the plate... One pick shot, sure can happen but both simulataneously... hmmmm, me wonder.....

Could a bad battery cause the problems I am having?
