Checking The Hv Coil - APRILIA Atlantic 500 Workshop Manual

Electrical Equipment

CHECKING THE HV COIL

• Remove the left inspection cover, see
(REMOVING THE RIGHT AND LEFT
INSPECTION COVERS).
• Disconnect terminal (1).
• Unscrew and remove the two screws (2).
• Disconnect the spark plug (3).
• Remove the coil (4).
With a pocket multimeter (scale 200 Ω), measure
•
the resistance (from the coil side) between the
terminals (A e B) indicated in the diagram.
• If the resistance measured is not correct, replace
the coil.
Standard value: 0.6 Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω ± 0.1 Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω
• Also verify the resistance between the high
voltage terminal and the casing of the coil.
Standard value: 7.4 kΩ Ω Ω Ω Ω
CAUTION
Before measuring, remove the H.V. cable complete
