IGNITION COILS (MARELLI BAE 800 AK)

Diagram of two Marelli BAE 800 AK ignition coils showing terminals A, B, C1, C2, C3, C4 and connections D.

The ignition system has two twin outlet coils connected directly to the spark plugs for cylinders 1-4 and 2-3.

These coils are operated by the power modules located in the control unit.

A - B Connection to terminals 19 and 1 of the control unit.

C1... C4 To the spark plugs (as indicated by the numbers on the ignition coil frame).

D Supply: from the power relay (with the ignition switch in the ON position).

Recovery

Short circuit to +Vb error: immediate disabling of the injector operation for the defective coil.

Short circuit to earth or open circuit error: the control unit applies the charging time from the coil in open-loop.

PETROL VAPOUR CUT OUT SOLENOID VALVE

View of the petrol vapour cut out solenoid valve installed near the suspension spring, with callout numbers 1 and 2.

This is the normally closed closed type with a resistance of between 17.5 and 23.5 ohm at 20°C.

Depending on the duty-cycle supply, the capacity should be:

  • A) duty-cycle 100% = 58 - 75 l/min
  • B) duty-cycle 50% = 24 - 36 l/min
  • C) duty-cycle 20% = 5.5 - 13.5 l/min.
