IGNITION SYSTEM
SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL
• The ECM may be damaged if dropped. Also, if the connector is disconnected when current is flowing, the excessive voltage may
damage the ECM. Always turn the ignition switch OFF before servicing.
• Use spark plug with the correct heat range. Using spark plug with an incorrect heat range can damage the engine.
• Some electrical components may be damaged if terminals or connectors are connected or disconnected while the ignition switch
is turned ON and current is present.
• When servicing the ignition system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting (page 5-5).
• The ignition timing cannot be adjusted since the ECM is factory preset.
• A faulty ignition system is often related to poor connections. Check those connections before proceeding.
• Make sure the battery is adequately charged. Using the starter with a weak battery results in a slower engine cranking speed as
well as no spark at the spark plug.
• Inspect the following:
- Spark plug (page 3-9)
- Ignition switch (page 21-22)
- CKP sensor (page 6-11)
• Refer to CKP sensor service (page 14-4 ).
