* Check that the fuse is not blown and the battery is fully-charged before diagnosing.
Step 1
1) Check the ignition system couplers for poor connections.
Is there connection in the ignition system couplers?
Step 2
1) Measure the battery voltage between input lead wires at the ECM with the ignition switch in ON
position. (R/Y and B/W)
Is the voltage OK?
Step 3
1) Measure the ignition coil primary peak voltage. (9-23)
NOTE:
This inspection method is applicable only with the multi circuit tester and the peak volt adaptor.
Is the peak voltage OK?
Step 4
1) Inspect the spark plug. (2-7)
Is the spark plug OK?
