Can a 12 Volt Spark be a no spark?
Can a 12 Volt Spark be a no spark?
If you get 12 volts, the points are not conducting when closed, if you get 0 volts, you are not getting any voltage to the coil or the points are not opening. As for the 12 volt spark, no, if everything was right, you would get about a 250 volt spark. When you have current flowing through the coil, a magnetic field builds up around the coil.
How to troubleshoot a no spark car engine?
I am grateful for the help. First, check for 6 volts between the negative terminal of the coil and ground while the engine is cranking. If you get 12 volts, the points are not conducting when closed, if you get 0 volts, you are not getting any voltage to the coil or the points are not opening.
Why is there no spark from the ignition coil?
Its like the ignition coil is not collapsing to send the spark energy to the spark plugs. How can you check the pickup coil to see if the timing events are happening in order to make and break the ground on the ignition coil in order to induce a spark on the secondary side, so that spark energy is sent to the spark plugs?
How does a spark get to the spark plug?
Primary windings create a magnetic field that when collapsed across secondary windings, create high voltage. This high voltage is required to overcome the greatest KV requirement in the secondary (normally the spark plug gap) this high voltage is transmitted from the coil to the spark plugs through a coil wire, dist cap, rotor and spark plug wires.

How does no spark at spark plug work?
An expert whose answer got voted for 2 times. Re: Klf 300 no spark at spark plug but got 12 volts both… HI THERE TRY CHANGING YOUR COIL YOU MAY HAVE 12 VOLTS EITHER SIDE BUT COILS WORK ON INDUCTION THAT IS TO SAY ONE COIL INSIDE ANOTHER THE MAGNETIC FIELD FROM ONE GENERATES THE HIGH VOLTAGE IN THE OTHER CIRCUIT TO THE HT LEAD .
How do you know if your car engine has no spark?
First, check for 6 volts between the negative terminal of the coil and ground while the engine is cranking. If you get 12 volts, the points are not conducting when closed, if you get 0 volts, you are not getting any voltage to the coil or the points are not opening.
What happens when there is no spark from the ignition coil?
1 Power. Two positions of the ignition switch provide power to the positive primary post of the ignition coil. 2 Signal. With no external signal to the coil negative primary post, voltage would travel through the ignition coil windings without inducing any secondary spark. 3 Flow. 4 Open Circuits.
