Ignition Coil Power Source

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1998 Infiniti Q45 and 1998 Infiniti I30. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ignition coil harness connector. Turn ignition on. Connect DVOM negative lead to ground and proceed as follows:
    • On I30, individually connect positive lead to each Red wire.
    • On Q45, individually connect positive lead to each Black/White wire.

    On all models, battery voltage should be present on each circuit.

  2. If battery voltage is not present, turn ignition off and proceed as follows:
    • On I30, check harness continuity between ignition coil and fuse block. If continuity is present, check continuity of Black/Red wire between fuse block and ignition switch.
    • On Q45, check 30-amp fuse in fuse box. If fuse is okay, check harness continuity between ignition coil and ignition switch, and harness continuity of White/Black wire between ignition switch and battery.
