Ignition Coil Resistance
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 35 other vehicles, including the 1992 Pontiac Trans Sport, 1992 Oldsmobile Silhouette, 1992 Oldsmobile Bravada, 1992 GMC Yukon, and 1992 GMC Vandura Special. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Remove coil connectors and secondary coil wire. In test "A", use high ohmmeter scale. Resistance value should be very high (infinite). See Fig 1. If reading is not infinite, replace coil.
- In test "B", use low ohmmeter scale. Reading should be very low (near zero ohms). If reading is not near zero ohms, replace coil. In test "C", use high ohmmeter scale. If no continuity exists, replace coil.
