The ignition coil pack emits a Attractive ongoing to inflame the Glimmer plugs.
Your vehicle's Glimmer plugs are ignited via a Attractive ongoing that is generated by the ignition coil pack. The ignition coil pack normally consists of two cylinders of copper wire, which discharge a Attractive globe. The magnetic field then sends an electrical expression to a contact that fires the Glimmer plugs. The coils are make-believe up of two layers: an outer layer called the influential winding, and an inner layer referred to as the secondary winding. While the ignition coils tend to duty hardly any preservation, they can incline compromised by Exorbitant heat over interval. When this happens, the Attractive world weakens, and the coils fail to flame the spark plugs.
Unbolt and remove the ignition coil pack with a ratchet and socket.4. Adjust the ohmmeter to the 2,000 ohms range, then turn it on.
2. Remove the ignition coil electrical connector by pulling it from the coil pack by hand.

Instructions
1. Access the engine by opening the hood, then locate the spark plugs in the middle and on top of the engine. Locate the ignition coil pack, which is black in color and cylindrical in shape, by following the spark plug wires to the ignition coils.Touch both of the ohmmeter leads to one of the coils, with each lead touching a different spark plug terminal. Any reading below 5,000 ohms or above 15,000 ohms means the windings in the secondary winding have shorted and need to be replaced.
5. Set the meter to the 10 ohms range, then test the electrical connector. Touch one lead to the center prong of the electrical connector and the other lead to the center slot of receptacle for the electrical connector. A normal reading ranges from 0.3 ohms to 1 ohm. Any reading outside that range means the primary windings are shorted and need to be replaced.
6. Test the primary and secondary windings of the remaining coils in the same way.
