If it doesn’t, there is no power from the Ignition Switch. Track that down (bad switch?). Incidentally, VW neverput any fuses in the Ignition circuit; so don’t go looking for blown fuses. Double check that there is power at Terminal #15 while cranking the engine with the key.

Why are the points on my spark plug not closing?

If the tester stays ON while cranking, the points are not closing. Watch them while turning the pulley to see if they appear to close. If they do, there may be a surface film on the points or the points are eroded and pitted. Replace the points. I strongly recommend using Bosch points as many of the off-brand points give very poor life.
