Trigger Coil Verification
STATIC TEST: CONTINUITY
1. Disconnect magneto wiring harness connector.
2. Install the 6-pin magneto harness adapter (P/N
295 000 136).
3. Connect one of the multimeter probes to the
WHITE wire of the 6-pin magneto harness
adapter.
4. Connect the other multimeter probe to the BLACK/
YELLOW wire of the 6-pin magneto harness
adapter.
5. Measure resistance; it should be between 18 - 25
ohms.

5. Crank engine and note result. The obtained val-
ue should be between 0.2 and 0.5 Vac.
6. If the trigger coil is out of specification, replace it.
Ignition Coil Verification
Before conducting any testing on the ignition coil,
make sure there is at least 12 Vdc at the primary
wires. If there is insufficient voltage, the ignition
problem is occurring before the ignition coil.
STATIC TEST
NOTE: An ignition coil with good resistance mea-
surement can still be faulty. Voltage leak can occur
at high voltage level which is not detectable with
an ohmmeter.
Primary Winding
1. Remove the 2 female spade connectors from
the primary side of the ignition coil.
2. With the multimeter set on the resistance scale,
connect the meter probes to the primary termi-
nals of the coil.
3. Resistance should be between 0.33 - 0.62 ohm.
Secondary Winding
The spark plug caps must be removed from high
tension cables, because they are resistor caps.
The cap resistance is 4.48 K ohms.
