Default No spark for me ED

Hey guys,
i drove my ed to my mates place so i could put it up for sale, i took out my CD player before i got there.

the next day my mate tried to start the car to move it but no go, so i was around there today and i had a look at it. the car will turn over but wont fire. i took off the spark plug lead n put a screw drive in it to check for a spark, nothing!! i check the dizzy the center carbon seems alright n the contacts are clean. i had a quick look from under the car at the coil n its got no burnt leads.

this has happened to me before and after many hours under the bonnet i clicked and worked out it was because the stereo wasn’t in, as soon as i put it back in away she went. part of the smart lock i guess.

so my question being would it be something to do with the dizzy or coil? or would it be the stereo. if it is the stereo why would it start without it at home here n not at his place? i'm heading back there in a couple of days does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
