Ignition Coil Resistance

  1. Using an ohmmeter, check primary coil resistance for cylinders No. 1 and 2 between coil connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3. Check resistance for cylinders No. 3 and No. 4 between connector terminals No. 2 and No. 3. See Fig 1 or Fig 2. See DIS IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE table.
  2. To check secondary coil resistance, disconnect ignition coil connector. Check resistance between coil towers No. 1 and No. 4 and between coil towers No. 2 and No. 3. See DIS IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE table. Replace coil if readings are not within specification.
