Ignition Coil: Testing and Inspection
Ignition Coil Test
1. With the ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the engine cover, then remove the ignition coil.
3. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between the terminals. Replace the coil if the resistance is not within specification.
NOTE: Resistance will vary with the coil temperature; specification is at 77°F (25°C).
Primary Winding Resistance
(between the No. I and No. 2 terminals)
0.9 - 1.1 ohms
^
If the resistance is not within specification, replace the coil.
^
If the resistance is OK, but other troubleshooting doesn't reveal the cause of the problem, substitute a known-good ignition coil and check
engine operation again.
If the engine then runs OK, replace the original coil.
