.Disconnect the coil from the vehicle wiring harness.
.Connect the negative (-) lead to the high tension terminal on the coil.
.Connect the positive (+) lead to the positive (B+) terminal on the coil.
Typical measurements are between 6,000-30,000 'S Consult the manufacturer's
specifications for required resistance measurements.
[3] Secondary Ignition Wire Resistance Test (
Ω
Ω
Ω
Ω
)
This test checks for open circuits or high resistance in the secondary
(sparkplug) wires.
IMPORTANT: Twist and bend the sparkplug wire while measuring the
resistance for this test.
.Set the rotary switch to the Resistance (
Ω
) setting.
INSERT:
Black lead in COM terminal.
Red lead in V/
Ω
/RPM terminal.
.Connect the test probes to opposite ends of the sparkplug wire.
.Set the MinIMax feature o the meter.
Typical measurements are approximately 1,000
Ω
's per inch of wire. For
example, 10 inch cable = 10.000
Ω
.
[4] Distributor Cap/Rotor Resistance Test (
Ω
Ω
Ω
Ω
)
This test checks for open circuits or high resistance in the distributor cap and
rotor.
Set the rotary switch to the Resistance (
Ω
).
INSERT:
Black lead in COM terminal.
Red lead in V/
Ω
/RPM terminal.
Dist. Cap Center connector Test:
Connect the test probes to opposite ends of the distributor cap terminal in
general, resistance (
Ω
) should be 0.1 (
Ω
) or less. Refer to the manufacturer's
specifications.
Rotor Test:
Connect the test probes to opposite ends of the rotor contacts.
