Ignition Coil Resistance

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2003 Nissan Xterra, 2003 Nissan Sentra, 2003 Nissan Pathfinder, 2003 Nissan Murano, and 2003 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Carefully inspect external housing for burned spots indicating secondary circuit arcing to primary or ground circuits. Disconnect ignition coil primary 2-pin harness connector. Measure resistance between primary connector terminals.
  2. Measure resistance between secondary tower and positive terminal No. 1 (PU/W) wire, of coil primary connector. If either resistance is not as specified, replace ignition coil. See IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE  table.
