IGNITION COIL SERVICE
OPERATION OVERVIEW
The ignition coil
q
is used to provide high voltage to fire
the spark plug (s). When the ignition key is on, DC
voltage is present in the primary side of the ignition coil
windings. During engine rotation, an AC pulse is created
within the crankshaft position sensor for each passing
tooth on the flywheel’s encoder ring. The encoder ring
missing
tooth creates an “interrupt” input signal,
corresponding to specific crankshaft position. This signal
serves as a reference for the control of ignition timing.
The ECU then calculates the time interval between the
consecutive pulses, and determines when to trigger the
voltage spike that induces the voltage from the primary to
the secondary coil windings to fire the spark plug(s).

NOTICE
The engine will misfire if the spark plug wires are
installed incorrectly. The spark plug wires are marked
with PTO and MAG from the factory and should be
installed to the corresponding cylinder and ignition coil
post.
