Ignition Coil Resistance
- Remove primary and secondary leads from ignition coil. Using ohmmeter, check primary resistance between positive and negative terminals of coil. See Fig 1 . Resistance should be as specified in the IGNITION COIL RESISTANCEΒ table. If resistance is not as specified, replace ignition coil.
- Check for proper secondary resistance between the coil towers of each ignition coil. See Fig 2 . Refer to specifications in the IGNITION COIL RESISTANCEΒ table. If resistance is not within specification, replace coil.
- Check insulation resistance of case. Using a 500-volt megger, measure insulation resistance between positive terminal and coil case. If resistance is not more than 10 megohms, replace ignition coil.
