The engine will not start and work well when conventional ignition system is misfire, the spark is weak, the fire is missing and the ignition advance regulator fails. Common engine faults may be caused by the ignition system. Engine failure in electronic ignition system will be discussed later.The common problems that prevent engine starting. Ignition coil (1) There are open circuit and short circuit in the primary winding and secondary winding.

Maintenance of conventional ignition system components are comprised of troubleshooting of ignition coil, troubleshooting of distributor, troubleshooting of spark plug. Common faults of ignition coils: Failure of the ignition coil usually causes the ignition system not to be fired and Insufficient ignition energy, etc.

In the previous article we have learned about the types of ignition systems. Today we will focus on the distributor-less ignition system, including two main branches, which are Coil-near-plug ignition system and Coil-On-Plug Ignition system. CNP(Coil-Near-Plug) This ignition system eliminates the distributor entirely. Instead, coil packs (multiple ignition coils) are used, one for each pair of cylinders. One coil serving two spark plugs (for example two coils in a four-cylinder engine, or three coils in a six-cylinder engine). A combination of two cylinders using a single ignition coil, so this ignition can only be used on engines with an even number of cylinders.

Let's take Elantra as an example. Remove the cover and take out the original ignition coil. In the meanwhile, pull out the connection wire of the coil, the key point: push the clip to the right, then press the bayonet and pull out the wiring harness to the right.

Oil filled ignition coil. Single tower ignition coil. Single tower ignition coil with ignition module. Coil-on-plug (pencil coil). Coil-on-plug ( pencil coil) with ignition module. Perfect for a four cylinder engine, or use two for a V8.Such as chevy ignition coil, shown as below.

The ignition coil is one of the core components in the ignition system of a car, also known as the high voltage package. Its role is to provide high-voltage electricity to the spark plugs and to give the cylinders a non-stop ignition. If there is a problem with the ignition coil, it will cause the engine to shake at idle, gasping for air and missing cylinders. There will be a noticeable shaking of the body during driving, weak acceleration and increased fuel consumption.

The main component of conventional ignition system (battery, ignition switch, ignition coil, resistor; distributor; distributor cap, rotor/distributor rotor, ignition cable/ignition wire/ignition lead, spark plug). The primary circuit (winding) carries low voltage. This circuit operates only on battery current and is controlled by the breaker points and the ignition switch. The secondary circuit consists of the secondary windings in the coil; The high tension lead between the distributor and coil wire.

Replace the dedicated ignition coil, each brand car should use the corresponding special ignition coil, so when you replace ignition coil, you must not be arbitrarily replaced, otherwise, it will cause the ignition controller and other electronic components to damage.

Abnormal combustion of spark plug electrode will be black or oil. After a certain cylinder is determined to have a failure, the ignition coil of the failure cylinder is exchanged with the ignition coil of the other cylinder. If the failure is transferred with the ignition coil, it can be determined to be ignition coil failure. At the same time, it is also necessary to check whether the connection wire of the ignition coil is broken.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the vehicle, attention should be paid to the maintenance of the ignition system.Maintenance should be carried out mainly include: 1. Clean the ignition coil, distributor cap, shell surface dust and oil. If necessary, you need to replace ignition coil. 2. Always keep the distributor clean inside and outside, and timely remove dust and oil. In case of rainy weather, water should be removed to keep the distributor dry and prevent electricity leakage
