Sportage EX 2WD L4-2.0L (1997)
Ignition Coil Pack: Testing and Inspection
Ignition Coil Resistance Check
IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Using an ohmmeter, check the primary coil's resistance. If not within specification, replace coil.
Remember that the unit has two coil assemblies, so there are two primaries to check. Connect one lead of the ohmmeter to the to the positive (+)
terminal and the other lead to each negative (-) terminal.
Primary coil resistance: 0.55-0.60 ohms @ 68°F (20°C)
2. Using an ohmmeter, check the secondary coil's resistance. If not within specification, replace coil.
Remember that you must check both the top and the bottom secondary coil's resistance. If one is out of specification replace whole unit.
Secondary coil resistance: 13-15k ohms @ 68°F (20°C)
