IGNITION SIGNAL

Component Description

INFOID:0000000005257444

IGNITION COIL & POWER TRANSISTOR

The ignition signal from the ECM is sent to and amplified by the power transistor. The power transistor turns

ON and OFF the ignition coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil

secondary circuit.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000005257445

6. Reconnect all harness connectors disconnected.

7. Remove fuel pump fuse (No.48) in IPDM E/R to release fuel

pressure.

NOTE:

Do not use CONSULT-III to release fuel pressure, or fuel pres-

sure applies again during the following procedure.

8. Start engine.

9. After engine stalls, crank it two or three times to release all fuel

pressure.

10. Turn ignition switch OFF.

11. Remove ignition coil harness connectors to avoid the electrical

discharge from the ignition coils.

12. Remove ignition coil and spark plug of the cylinder to be

checked.

13. Crank engine for five seconds or more to remove combustion gas in the cylinder.

14. Connect spark plug and harness connector to ignition coil.

15. Fix ignition coil using a rope etc. with gap of 13 - 17 mm (0.52 -

0.66 in) between the edge of the spark plug and grounded metal

portion as shown in the figure.

16. Crank engine for about three seconds, and check whether spark

is generated between the spark plug and the grounded part.

CAUTION:

• Never place to the spark plug and the ignition coil within

50cm (19.7 in) each other. Be careful not to get an electri-

cal shock while checking, because the electrical dis-

charge voltage becomes 20 kV or more.

• It might cause to damage the ignition coil if the gap of more than 17 mm (0.66 in) is made.

NOTE:

When the gap is less than 13 mm (0.52 in), the spark might be generated even if the coil is mal-

functioning.

17. If NG, Replace ignition coil with power transistor.
