Ignition Coil: Testing and Inspection

CHECKING IGNITION COILS




1. Measure the primary coil resistance between connector C11-2 terminals 1 and 2 (the coils at the No.1 and No.4 cylinder sides) of the ignition coil, and between connector C11-1 terminals 1 and 2 (the coils at the No.2 and No.3 cylinder sides).

Standard value: 0.87 Ohm ± 10 %







2. Measure the secondary coil resistance between the high-voltage terminal for the No.1 and No.4 cylinders, and between the high-voltage terminals for the No.2 and No.3 cylinders.

Standard value: 13.0 Ohm ± 15 %

CAUTION: Be sure, when measuring the resistance of the secondary coil, to disconnect the connector of the ignition coil.
