How to ring in the ignition coil

Ignition coil is a step-up transformer. It changes low voltage electric network of the car on high. Signs of a faulty ignition coil usually is not the working condition of all the candles. To ring in the ignition coil is very simple. You only need an ohmmeter or multimeter.

You will need

The key is to remove the coil, the ohmmeter or multimeter.

Instruction

Open the hood and locate the ignition coil. Disconnect from her high-voltage wire. It is usually suited to a Central contact. Disconnect the two wires a plus (+) and minus (–) from the coil. Remove the coil from the body of the car.

Next, check the resistance of the secondary winding. To do this, connect the ohmmeter to the negative (-) terminal and high voltage. The resistance between them should be within 4.5 kω to 6.5 kω.

The next step is to check the coil on the insulation or ground. Connect one contact of the ohmmeter to the body of the ignition coil, and the second in turn to each of pins: plus and minus high voltage. The resistance between each terminal and the body coil should not be less than 50 megohms.

Note

Before pozvonyat the ignition coil, it should be inspected visually. If the coil cover has chipped, plavlennogo, usbtest, most likely, it is faulty and can be easily changed to a new one.

In all cases measurements if the resistance differs from the specified value, it means that the ignition coil is not serviceable and it will have to change. The motors where on each candle has its own ignition coil, the resistance values can be different. In this case it is better to take the book on the device and maintenance and learn the operating values of the resistances of the ignition coil.
