Structure

•

The voltage regulator has been eliminated, and generator control is carried out by the PCM.

•

A Generator duct made of plastic and generator heat insulator made of iron have been adopted to protect the 
generator from the exhaust manifold heat.

IGNITION COIL

A6E471201008T04

Structure

•

The ignition coil contains two coils. They are for cylinder numbers 1 and 4, and cylinder numbers 2 and 3 
respective.(Matched pairs)

•

The two secondary terminals contain the secondary coils positive and negative terminals. The closed circuit of 
secondary coils is formed through the high-tension leads, two spark plugs and the cylinder head. Due to this, 
one coil ignites two cylinders simultaneously.

•

The firing timing of the coil is controlled by the PCM due to built-in ignition system. (Section F)
