- Ensure that the sealing lip fits correctly on the ignition coil so that it can seal correctly. Do not crush the sealing lip.
NOTE:
The description is provided only at one component. The procedure is the same for all other components.
- Position the ignition coil and gently push it to the stop, if necessary by twisting it back and forth slightly.
- Check anti-twist lock.
- Check, whether the rubber seal of the ignition coil completely encloses the opening for the spark plug on the cylinder head cover.
- Push connector (1) onto the ignition coil in direction of the arrow with the connector fastener (2) open.
- Carefully close the connector fastener (2)
in the direction of the arrow.
The connector fastener (2) must snap into place at the correct position without great effort.
