What is the Ignition Coil？

The ignition coil is a crucial component in an engine‘s ignition system. It converts the 12 V battery voltage to a much higher voltage. This enables the spark plug to create a spark and then ignite the air-fuel mixture inside the engine cylinders, powering your car.

Where is the Ignition coil located?

It’s mounted directly on the spark plug. In older specific vehicles, you can find it inside the distributor.

What are the Symptoms of a Bad Ignition Coil?

A weak ignition coil often affects engine performance, but the engine itself isn’t the root cause — it lies with the ignition coil. Common signs of a bad ignition coil include:

1. Your car stalls.
2. The check engine light is on.
3. The engine misfires.
4. Difficulty starting the engine.
5. Loud backfiring noises from the car’s exhaust.
6. Increased fuel consumption.

Why do you need to Check the Ignition Coil with a Multimeter？

The multimeter can measure the resistance of ignition coils. Compared to the resistance chart, you can determine if the coil is broken.

What is the Distributor?

The distributor uses a rotor to route high voltage from an ignition coil to each spark plug. Older vehicles require distributors because they relied on a single ignition coil to serve all cylinders.

In modern vehicles, each cylinder is equipped with individual ignition coils, and the distributor is no longer needed.

What’s the Difference Between a Cylinder Coil and a Spark Plug Coil?

“Cylinder coil” is not a standardized automotive part, but some drivers use it to describe that an individual ignition coil serves a single engine cylinder.

“Spark plug coil” typically refers to a coil-on-plug ignition coil that is mounted on the spark plug.
