Figure 11-34 Secondary Coil Test Without Cap
5. Test the secondary coil separately from the spark plug cap.
5.1. Using a multimeter set to 20k ohms, place the red (+) probe of the meter into the end of the spark plug wire
and place the black (–) probe on a clean unpainted surface of the engine or frame (Figure 11-34, Page
11-34) . If the resistance is between 6.0k - 11.0k ohms, the secondary coil is within acceptable limits. If the
resistance is not between 6.0k - 11.0k ohms, bench test the ignition coil.
6. If the preceding tests indicate that the ignition coil resistance readings are within acceptable ranges, but the coil
fails to function properly, proceed to the following bench test procedures.
Ignition Coil – Bench Test
1. Remove the coil from the engine. See Ignition Coil Removal on page 12-28.
2. Using a multimeter set to 200 ohms, measure the primary coil resistance.
2.1. Place the black (–) probe of the meter on the terminal on the ignition coil (1), and place the red (+) probe on
the core (2) (Figure 11-35, Page 11-35) .
