Ignition Coil Verification
STATIC TEST NOTEAn ignition coil with good resistance measurement can still be faultyVoltage leak can occur at high voltage level which is not detectable with an ohmmeterPrimary Winding
1Install the test adapter to spark plug cable close to MAG side spark plug2Connect Bombardier Ignition Tester probes then set switch and dial as follows :

587 and 717 Engines Due to the integrated CDI module, it is not possible to take any resistance measurement787 Engine 1Remove the female spade connectors from the primary side of the ignition coil2With the meter set on the resistance scale, connect the meter leads to the primary terminals of the coil3Resistance should be between 0.340.62 ohmSecondary Winding The spark plug caps must be removed from high tension cables, because they are resistor capsThe cap resistance is 4.48 ohmsN
