TIMING PROTECTION MODULE
Normally, if timing advances and retards with corre-
sponding changes in RPM, most likely the TPM is
functioning correctly. Refer to “Ignition Diagnostic
Procedures” preceding, for individual failure sce-
narios.
STATOR
A resistance check can be made on charge coils.
Ohmmeter should indicate as follows:
Black Stator between GREEN/WHITE and GREEN
leads (525-625 ohms)
Red Stator between GREEN/WHITE and WHITE/
GREEN leads (660-710 ohms).
TRIGGER (S/N-0G589999 & BELOW)
A resistance check can be made on trigger coil be-
tween WHITE/BLACK and WHITE leads. Ohmmeter
should indicate between 1100 - 1300 ohms.
