first things first
do you have a spark tester?
check the oil level
it should be at the top of bottom threads on the fill if it is a side fill style dip stick.
from there the oil level switch maybe bad or the start stop switch could be stuck.
the oil level switch will be on the side of the crank case most of the time it is a yellow wire.
unplug that wire and see if you have spark.
if not then find the switch on the back side of the on off selector and check it with an ohm meter for function.

wow!
did you get the manual down loaded?
there should be a wiring diagram in there.
basic there is a pickup winding for the spark trig.
that goes in to a spark module
and is also tied in to the inverter unit.
use an ohm meter to check the primary and secondary of the ing coil with it disconnected from the gen harness.
(note: still mounted in place)
there are also checks for the windings of the stator with an ohm meter.

I am well beyond that at this point.I need info on how to test the coil and stator output for ignition.I need to know where to place the multimeter probes and what resistance values are correct.Have you tried a different spark plug or better yet the spark tester previously suggested?
Take a look at the wiring diagram in the manual; it is different...

No skipped steps. If you don't want help, just say so.
Step 1: Check for output voltage from spark module with a spark tester or known good plug.
Step 2: If spark tester shows no voltage, check for voltage on the Blue/Gray input wires when cranking. Gray is ground.
...
What voltage would I expect to see on the Blue/Grey wires when pulling the starter cord?

It's an any/none test. What did you get? If any (up to 27V as shown in the manual), then the ignition coil is likely at fault. If none, then test the continuity of the fuel switch cutoff and the reset switch.

That doen't sound like enough voltage. Did you have the meter on AC Volts? If you're getting the same voltage on the line going to the coil as you're getting directly off the stator, it would appear that everything after the stator is OK.
The reset switch trips if there's an overload on the inverter and it shuts down the engine on some models and only the inverter on other models.
As good as it looks It won’t run.
