Have you put the rotor arm in? 
The black should go to a common ignition controlled feed as well as to the coil and the module. Black is always a switched live in Ford looms. The
Black/Green goes to the little terminal on the starter solenoid so it is a cranking feed to give a boost when starting.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

My dizzy had an earth (1 of the 3 wires).
i used the diag posted by Bob but colours were totally different on the plug i had. i just followed the order and it worked OK.
