Integrated Electronic Ignition (EI) System
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Lincoln MKZ, 2011 Ford Fusion, 2010 Mercury Milan, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The EI system consists of a crankshaft position (CKP) sensor, ignition coils, connecting wiring, and PCM. The coil on plug (COP) integrated EI system uses a separate coil for each spark plug and each coil is mounted directly onto the plug. The COP integrated EI system eliminates the need for spark plug wires, but requires input from the camshaft position (CMP) sensor.
