17. IGNITION SYSTEM

SERVICE INFORMATION

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
 Some electrical components may be damaged if terminals or connectors are connected or
disconnected while the ignition switch is "ON" and current is present.
 When servicing the ignition system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting on page 17-2.
 The ignition timing cannot be adjusted since the ignition control module is already adjusted in
factory.
 The ignition control module or ECU maybe damaged if dropped or the connector is
disconnected when the key is " ON ", the excessive voltage may damage the ignition control
module or ECU. Always turn off the ignition switch before servicing.
 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 motor with weak battery results
in a slower engine cranking speed as well as no spark at the spark plug.
 Use a spark plug of the correct heat range. Using spark plug with an incorrect heat range can
damage the engine.
