How to Determine if a Motorcycle Ignition Coil is Faulty?
1 Answers
Methods to determine if a motorcycle ignition coil is faulty include: 1. Poor ignition, intermittent ignition, or engine stalling while riding; 2. Failure to provide high voltage to the spark plug for ignition, resulting in the inability to start the vehicle; 3. Poor conduction or leakage causing abnormal ignition, intermittent or halted ignition strength, weak acceleration, poor starting, or engine stalling while riding. The motorcycle ignition coil, also known as the high-voltage coil, consists of a primary coil, a secondary coil, and an iron core. During use, the primary coil is first charged, inducing a self-generated voltage of 200 to 300V in the primary coil, which then mutually induces with the secondary coil to produce a high voltage of 18 to 20KV. The magnitude of the generated voltage depends on the turns ratio of the two coils. Finally, the high voltage is delivered to the spark plug for ignition.
