Check secondary resistance between terminal "A" and secondary output terminal (coil tower). See IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE
. Check for continuity between "A" and "B" terminals (Odyssey and Prelude) or terminals "A" and "C" (Accord). Continuity should exist. If readings are not within specification, replace coil.
