ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 14-5
TROUBLESHOOTING
No spark or poor spark
Step 1
1) Check the ignition system couplers for poor connections.
Is there connection in the ignition system couplers?
Step 2
1) Measure the ignition coil primary peak voltage. ("14-9)
Is the peak voltage OK?
Step 3
1) Inspect the spark plug. ("2-7, -8)
Is the spark plug OK?
Step 4
1) Measure the ignition coil/plug cap resistance. ("14-10)
Is the ignition coil/plug cap resistance OK?
Step 5
1) Measure the pick-up coil peak voltage. ("14-7)
Is the peak voltage OK?
Step 6
1) Measure the pick-up coil resistance. ("14-8)
Is the resistance OK?
