DESCRIPTION
The ECU is programmed with data for optimum ignition timing under any and all operating conditions. Using
data provided by sensors which monitor various engine functions (rpm, intake air volume, eng, temperature,
etc.), the microcomputer (ECU) triggers the spark at precisely the right instant.
The ECU monitors the engine condition by sig-
nals from each sensor, calculates the ignition timing
and sends an ignition signal to the igniter. High volt-
age from the ignition is distributed to each spark
plug in the appropriate order to generate a spark be-
tween the electrodes, which ignites the air–fuel mix-
ture.
IGNITER
The igniter temporarily interrupts the primary cur-
rent with the ignition signal (IGT signal) from the
ECU and generates sparks at the spark plug. Also,
as a fail–safe measure, when ignition occurs an igni-
tion confirmation signal (IGF signal) is sent to the
ECU.
IGNITION COIL
The ignition coil uses a closed core coil with the
primary coil wrapped around the core and the sec-
ondary coil wrapped around the primary coil. This al-
lows the generation of a high voltage sufficient to
cause a spark to jump across the spark plug gap.
DISTRIBUTOR
This correctly distributes high voltage to the
spark plug of each cylinder in the specified ignition
order.
PICKUP COILS
The NE coil detects the crank angle, and the G1
and G2 coils detect the cam angle.
