How can I tell if my CDI box is damaged?
The automotive should be switched off and allowed to cool. Use an ohmmeter to measure the electrical resistance of the CDI box in a quantifiable way. Different vehicles have specified electrical resistance within the coil. If the coil’s correct resistance levels fail to meet these specifications, you’ll know that your coil is damaged.
Is the ignition coil the same as the ground wire?
In other words, turning off the key is the same as touching the end of the ground wire from the ignition module to the mower frame. You have answered the question in a way that doesn’t make sense to me.

Another wire is a Red power wire, that is split between the black plug, and the clear plastic plug. The clear plastic has the IGN SW Coil pink wire running to it. As you said, this wire is for the coil, that makes complete sense.
Where does the power come from on an ignition coil?
Yep, there is another wire that goes from the fuse block to the (+) side of the coil. This is how the coil gets power. The entire fuse block has a thick red wire leading out of it. This is definitely not a 10 Ga, but a lot thicker.
