electrical - What is an igniter? - Motor Vehicle Maintenance Repair . . . The igniter is the step up transformer that sits inline between the engine control computer and the ignition coil It takes the low amperage signal from the computer, usually a 12 volt square wave, and steps it up to higher amperage trigger signal for the ignition coil Most use a high current rated transistor as its primary component
How is ignition coil feedback useful? - Motor Vehicle Maintenance . . . The IGf signal tells the ECU that a spark event has actually occurred In the event of an ignition fault, after approximately eight to eleven IGt signals are sent to the igniter without receiving an IGf confirmation, the ECU will enter a fail-safe mode, shutting down the injectors to prevent potential catalyst overheating
Is there a way to test ignition coils with built-in ICM? Honda Coil Over Plug setups have three wires As mentioned they have an internal Ignition Control Module Pins 1 2 are power and ground while pin 3 is the control signal from the Electronic Control Module
Troubleshooting dim HID headlights - Motor Vehicle Maintenance Repair . . . I do have a TL I once had one light that would go on and off, and by switching bulbs found that it was not the bulb I bought a ballast kit from Amazon, which looked exactly like the original It came with the igniter (fortunately) because when I tried using the old igniter, it still didn't work New igniter was the fix As for your assumption
Does a 1998 Suzuki Intruder 1500 (carbureted) Have a Ignition . . . On carbureted models, the ignition system consists of a signal generator, igniter with an 8-bit microprocessor (IC), two ignition coils and two park plugs During operation, the IC in the igniter receives input from the signal generator, throttle position sensor, and MAP sensor to determine the ignition timing for the operating conditions
What is the expected voltage of a coil to a distributor supposed to be . . . Yeah, this is all irrelevant for electronic ignition But for mechanical ignition, if the points happen to be closed when you switch on the ignition before starting, with no ballast resistor the full battery voltage would be going continuously through the coil until you start cranking, which would not be a good idea if you left the ignition on for a hour while trying to diagnose some other
Kawasaki ZX10 (88-90) no start issue - Motor Vehicle Maintenance . . . It seems to me that all the safety systems are properly bypassed, so it should start - unless igniter or junction box are junk - however it does not The fact that the junction box seems to react when the neutral safety switch is connected to +12V instead of ground is confusing I believe the clicking sound is the relay 7 in the following picture
Suzuki Intruder VL1500 Ignition Coil Difference in Front and Rear On carbureted models, the ignition system consists of a signal generator, igniter with an 8-bit microprocessor (IC), two ignition coils and two park plugs During operation, the IC in the igniter receives input from the signal generator, throttle position sensor, and MAP sensor to determine the ignition timing for the operating conditions
