Component Tests and General Diagnostics

IGNITION COIL INSPECTION [13B-MSP]

Ignition Coil Inspection

1. Perform the spark test and identify the malfunctioning cylinder.

2. Replace the ignition coil of the malfunctioning cylinder with that of a normal cylinder, and reperform the spark test.

- If the spark is not normal due to a malfunctioning ignition coil, replace that ignition coil.
- It is unlikely that all four ignition coils fail to operate properly. To prevent replacing a normal component, perform the above procedure, identify the malfunctioning ignition coil, and replace it.

3. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Removal and Replacement

4. Remove the air hose (air cleaner to throttle body). Intake-Air System Removal/Installation

5. Disconnect the ignition coil connector.

6. Measure the resistance between each terminal on the ignition coil connector using an analog circuit tester.

- If the measurement corresponds to the table, replace the ignition coil.
