Angry 1998 Chrysler Sebring No start and no spark

We have a 1998 Chrysler Sebring with a 2.5 liter v6 engine. It turns over but does not start and we have no power to the distributor. We have changed distributor, pcm, crankshaft sensor, wires, plugs and relays. Trying to figure out how to diagnose it from here. Any ideas??

Get the codes out of the computer and go from there. The car has an on-board diagnostic system to find what is wrong. Make use of that before you run around replacing expensive parts *****-nilly.
If there's no power to the distributor, it makes no sense to replace the distributor. First find out why there's no power to the distributor.

We can get power to the distributor but no spark. There are no codes to go by that is why we replaced the computer. Any ideas

We are trying to test the ignition coils now and looking to find out where terminal one and two are located at.

Should we change out the whole distributor even though it was recently replaced?? The car has been sitting for a couple years since that repair was made but it looks like its in good condition
