A Direct Ignition System (DIS) is used on this vehicle.

The DIS is a 1-cylinder ignition system which ignites one cylinder with one ignition coil In the 1-cylinder ignition system, the one spark plug is connected to the end of the secondary winding. High voltage generated in the secondary winding is applied directly to the spark plug. The spark of the spark plug passes from the center electrode to the ground electrode.

The ECM determines the ignition timing and outputs the ignition signals (IGTs) for each cylinder. Using the IGTs, the ECM turns the power transistor inside the igniter on/off, which switches on/off current to the primary coil. When current to the primary coil is cut off, high voltage is generated in the secondary coil and this voltage is applied to the spark plugs to create sparks inside the cylinders. As the ECM cuts current to the primary coil, the igniter sends back ignition confirmation signals (IGFs) for each cylinder ignition to the ECM.
