Ignition Signal: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Infiniti G37. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The ignition signal from the ECM is sent to and amplified by the power transistor. The power transistor turns ON and OFF the ignition coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil secondary circuit.
