Testing of the ignition module is not
limited to only a spark test. If no
ignition spark is obtained or other
functions do not work, a diagnosis
must be carried out according to the
troubleshooting chart; replace
control unit or M-Tronic wiring
harness if necessary.

Testing the ignition
module
To test the ignition module, use
either the ZAT 4 ignition system
tester 5910 850 4503 or the
ZAT 3 ignition system tester
5910 850 4520.
The ignition test refers only to a
spark test, not to the ignition timing.

Using the ZAT 4 ignition system
tester
5910 850 4503
– Before starting the test, install a
new spark plug in the cylinder
and tighten it down firmly.
:
Connect the spark plug boot to
the input terminal (1). Push the
tester's output terminal (3) onto
the spark plug
Danger! High voltage – risk of
electrocution.
– Crank the engine quickly with the
rewind starter and check
sparkover in the window (2) of
the ignition system tester
The engine may start and
accelerate during the test.
If a spark is visible, the ignition
system is in order.
– If no spark is visible in the
window (2),
check the ignition
system with the aid of the
troubleshooting chart,
