When the DI cassette fails, suddenly, it often has the smell of burnt epoxy and sometimes you can see smoke. If either, just order a new one.
To test for spark, you need 4 plugs unstalled in the DIC, have it right side up and all four plugs MUST be grounded. After the DIC fires, a moment later it will fire all plugs in a cleaning cycle, even with keys removed, so there is a danger if you do not wait.
DICs fail all of the time. How many miles on yours?
Do not leave power on with a failed DIC, it may overheat the wiring harness and cause severe damage. Tow truck operators have done this.
If yoou know someone with a Saab, you can swap in their DI for a test, that is fast, easy and conclusive.
