Ignition Coil Power Source & Ground

  1. Disconnect 3-pin ignition coil connector. Turn ignition on. Check voltage between ground and terminal 3 of ignition coil connector. See Figure .
  2. Voltage should be .01-.1 volt. If voltage is not as specified, go to IGNITION COIL/POWER TRANSISTOR RESISTANCE (below). If voltage is as specified, turn ignition off. Check continuity between ground and ignition coil connector terminal No. 1.
  3. If continuity does not exist, repair ground circuit between ignition coil connector terminal No. 1 and ground. Repeat test for remaining coils.
