4) Push the "RESET" button and repeat step 3 twice more.
Results:
a) The "Indicator" light comes on: The ignition
system is as it should be.
b) The "Indicator" light does not come on: The
problem is a result of a defect in the coil or in
the ignition.
IGNITION MODULE
The ignition module cannot be verified using the Bombardier
tester. When the other components have been tested and
correspond to the prescribed tolerances, the module is probably
defective. Try a new module.
POWER OF THE GENERATOR LIGHTING COIL
The generator lighting coil is not part of the ignition system. It is
a separate system designed to supply power to the lighting
system as well as other mechanisms controlled by alternating
current. However, this system can be checked with the same
tester.
1) Disconnect the junction block from the bundle of wires
near the engine (the one with the YELLOW and
YELLOW wires).
2) Connect the tester wires, then place the switch and the
dial in the following positions:
Tester wires Wires of the tester component Position of the tester switch Position of the tester dial
