IGNITOR Test
- Turn ignition on. Connect voltmeter positive probe to ignition coil positive terminal, and negative probe to coil negative terminal. Reading should be approximately 6 volts.NOTE: On some Toyota models, step 1) is replaced by a voltage check between ignition coil negative terminal "e" and resistor terminal "a". This reading should be 12 volts. Either check Is acceptable.
- Unplug wiring connector from distributor. Using a 1.5 volt dry cell battery, connect positive battery pole to White wire of 2-pin connector. Connect battery negative pole to Pink wire terminal. See Fig 1.
- Again check oil voltage with the 1.5 volt battery installed. Voltage should be approximately zero (0) volts. Turn ignition off, remove test equipment, and reconnect wiring.
