Mirage L4-1468cc 1.5L SOHC 12 Valve (1996)
Ignition Coil: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
When the ignition power transistor is turned ON by the signal from the engine control module, primary current flows to the ignition coil. When the
ignition power transistor is turned OFF, primary current is shut off and a high voltage is induced in the secondary coil.
OPERATION
When the engine control module turns OFF the transistor in the module, the battery voltage in the module is applied to the ignition power
transistor unit to turn it ON. When the engine control module turns ON the transistor in the module, the ignition power transistor unit is turned
OFF.
