What if ignition coil has two wires, not three?
Thx bro. Gonna try in the morning
Liking your cheap, aldi, lidl and haflords set up, does the job 👌
شكرا على التوضيح. تحياتي لك 🙏، أنا من المغرب
Thanks for watching !
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you.
You're welcome!
how does a guy test a 2002 Mustang GT coil pack to see if it is good? Can we measure that with an ohms meter?
i was diagnosing a misfire on a nissan quest, i performed this test procedure for the coil packs and it read that it was good, but when i switched around the coil packs from one spot to another the misfire jumped to where i put in the tested coil pack, it ended up being a bad coil pack did i miss something? or did something wrong? because i got the same readings as you
This method only tests the 'input' side of the coil.
The high voltage 'output' side going to the sparkplug, is not tested by this method. The bad coil pack may have had a shorted output coil, an open output coil, or a high-resistance short that only conducted under high voltage (which would read okay if tested with a multimeter).
If this test gives a 'bad' reading, replace the coil pack.
If this test gives a good reading, your swap method is the way to go--see if the misfire fault follows the suspect coil pack.
so the last test , if it was bad.. it would be 0 or infinity right?
Yes, 0 would indicate a dead short and infinity would indicate an open circuit.
Im getting the same reading on 1 & 3 , 2&3 . 1&2 read 2.5 63 all 3 coils read the same
Just to get this straight, then.
For two and three, any reading except 0 or 0.L (infinite) is good?
For one and two, and one and three, any reading except 0 is good? Or do you always want those two readings to read 0.L (infinite)?
Yes, between 2 and 3 any reading other than '0' or 'infinity is good.
Between 1 and 2 and between 1 and 3 any reading other that '0' is good,
These are the readings given in the Nissan Micra manual.
So when it says "except 0", does that mean it should be either infinity or a number value? Or just infinity
Yes, Except '0'' is either infinity or a number value
@@knobsdialsandbuttons do you mean "accept"?
Which ohm value should I have it on ?? 200, 2k, 20k, 200k, 2m
20k, 2k, or even 200 since the reading is 1.40 look up your manufacturers ohms reading for your cars plugs
how to check if 4 terminal
Is this test to suit any make of car?
with 3 pins yes
How do I test my Bluetooth controlled ignition coils?
Most use Bluetooth meter 😂
Why do I need to remove the coil from the engine?
Because it takes 2 seconds to remove and install and will make your life much easier
Hi,my Outback has 4 pins , and all the combinations like 1-2 , 1-3 , 2-4 etc show infinity , you think coil pack is bad ? Thanks
Yeah. Circuit can't be completed therefore it's shorted.
My coil shows good,but when driving,then it shows misfiring on the same coil.
how does 3 pins control 4 cylinders???
This is only one of 4 ignition coils. There's one on each spark plug.
You repeat this process on the individual coils. When youbhave a flat tire in thenrrar driver youndont look at the driver front thats ok and wonder why the car feels flat would you?
Hi all, when I test ignition coils secondary resistance always show nothing. On multimeter 2k, 200k and auto mode the resistance stay on 1, but coils work good and properly. Why it’s happening?
hi, toyota coil has 4 pins. what to do?
look for a 4 pin procedure
@@Aesthetics622😂 Good answer😂😂😂
I guess the ones that read 5.something are good ones and the ones that are irratic are bad. You never said.

and how would you know if it's faulty?
he wouldn't :) i have coil where i find 50k between two pins, but brand new coil indicates ~7k ohm. To know which is bad you need at least one good coil or at least know proper values for a given coil.
@pepedombo3819 just need to check all coil packs and if one differ
I have 4 pins un my coil pack
What if it reads 1.8?
1.8 or 1.8k?
1.8 is good
I hate when their afraid to talk and explain things
He explained everything we needed to know perfectly clear without speaking.
can read can't we?
Dumb comment move on
I hate when people who can't spell comment 😂
Understandable, but they could be from a country that does not speak English! The subtitles were easy to follow and understand!
Aldi tools.. nahhh
Except 0? I think you mean 'accept.'
No it is 'except 0', as in 'other than' 0
