"Does a condenser have to be grounded to work or not?" No! In many applications a capacitor is not connected to ground.
If you're talking about a capacitor in a breaker point ignition system, Yes! In order to provide contact protection one end is grounded. However, the capacitor can be removed and the system will operate until the point contacts burn.
Last but not least, yes, a loss of ground could be the problem also a loss of battery. Check for continuty from the point plate toward the battery. Could have losened something when you disconnected the capacitor.
