How to Test a COP Ignition Coil, Internal Igniter

This Video describes how to Test a COP Ignition Coil, Internal Igniters. Explained from a highly technical point of view, with pointer to using the Zapper Ignition Coil Tester. See how to test these COP coils.

I like a way how you scientifically explain technical stuff. Everything clear and easy to follow.. Thanks!

[@ADPTraining]

Thank you, also subscribe to my site as were always giving out free Ebooks and stuff. us11.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=309704bf2344e3e5a26b08d10&id=8bc742345a

Thanks for the tips, I tested my coils tonight!

Best Automotive channel for me Thanks

[@CharlesChakota-lx1rs]

Very nice topic.

[@DANNYN224]

Nice video new subscriber im a mechanic who knows most wants to learn how to test things and kbow electric trying to be a better tech

Thank you sir

[@joemerlongcob9492]

Can u pls do a video a ecm how it works at its function ty

[@Wtfinc]

hmmm, a dwell knob and and a frequency knob? Bet there's a 555 in that "zapper". But I shouldn't use a signal generator. Maybe a pulse gen? lol. I feel like your selling that zapper. I highly doubt the Zapper is shielded either. looks cheap.

[@berniecueto2752]

Thnx for sharing. This is very helpful and educational. Question: would it be okay to use COP ignition coil for cars to be used in motorcycle(Big bike)? Assuming electrical connection and its physical fitment is okay. Thnx.

[@ADPTraining]

Maybe, some motorcycles have capacitive ignition, not magnetic.

[@tomkoby6990]

Do you have a video on testing a multiple coil/ignition module assembly like on an eco tech engine?

[@ADPTraining]

Yes, search my channel, ADPTraining here on YT .

[@user-bp1sw1wh8e]

does yellow wire (for trigger?) connect to green wire of ignition pulser ?

[@ADPTraining]

COP coil has 3 wires. Ground, B+ and trigger. autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com

[@ctm1170]

with just a multi tester you can test the transistor if its ok or not.....reading betweeen base and collector, base and emitter must read lo/hi for forward bias and hi/lo for reverse bias.....you can also test the resistance of primary coil and secondary coil based on your diagram for short or open ....thanks

[@ADPTraining]

Negative, COP with internal igniters don't have just one transistor. I mentioned, it's a simplified diagram on the video. Also on these COP with internal igniters, you don't have access to the coil primary for a DMM test, because it had a PCB circuit in between. On a non igniter unit, an Ohm check is just preliminary to detect opens, but won't test a coil. Often times coil windings semi short a couple turns, which is undetectable by an Ohm check. www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/ignition_coil_pulser_tester.html

[@deanslevin5511]

haha.. ignorant lad! owning the DMM & knowing how to operate it doesn't automatically make you a technician or an engineer 😆😆

[@asadbaloch2018]

What about coils with four pin outs, like for Toyota Camry

[@ADPTraining]

I already posted for 4 wire coils, coming on live tomorrow here on my channel. Thanks

[@kingstarengineering3229]

I like that

[@busancun]

What is the use of testing an ignition coil, since I have been suggested all the packs be changed once one is found to be of problem?

[@ADPTraining]

Absolutely not. I'm same cases the coils are $95 each. Why replace all coils? Proper diagnostics is the way to go and save.

[@chestonanderson]

Tell me this i have a 08 DTS Cadillac I got battery voltage ground signal and low ref going to the coils but no spark same on all 8 🤯🤯

[@ADPTraining]

Well, you need to test the coils. There's no other way. We make the ZAPPER COIL Tester for that. Here... www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/ignition_coil_pulser_tester.html

I'm waiting:)

Cant find the zapper tool yet

I would like to become your trainee and in jeneral auto electronics,and East African Representative.

[@ADPTraining]

Great, count me in.

[@joemerlongcob9492]

Is missed timing can cause no spark

[@chestonanderson]

Highly unlikely it should still spark 🤯

[@johnjames5645]

Does the power came from the ecu?

[@ADPTraining]

No, ECM provides trigger pulse. Fuse box provides power.

[@johnjames5645]

@@ADPTraining Thank you kind sir...

[@Videogamer-555]

Chassis ground should be the same as battery ground if your car is wired properly. The negative wire from the battery goes directly to the frame of your car.

[@ADPTraining]

Yes unless there's an issue.

[@DFWAuto_Hack]

Awesome video. People rarely reply to their audience but i noticed you do and that makes one of a kind. I HAVE A 2003 ACCORD V6 with wierd isssues (rough rumning, stalling...). I am marrowing the issue to an electrical issue. Tested the signals at the 3 pin coils yesterday & i see Battery Voltage, Ground and the last pin is 0volts or nearly that. I am wondering what the last pin is supposed to be

[@noneyall2819]

Why dont you just test it with a multimeter???

[@ADPTraining]

Multimeter has no place here. These are igniter built in coils. www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/VW_Audi_COP_Coil_Tester_Pulser.html

[@rohanboswell5408]

Waste of time

[@pedrorojascervantes3928]

You can just guess & be a parts exchanger. Or you can understand how a component works & then use your logic / diagnostic skills to determine the fault(s) Good luck with that. If you're a shade tree mechanic & go to a junk yard & buy cheap known good parts that's fine. BTW fuel Injectors work on a similar principle & you cannot simply use a multi meter or a test light. A noid light set or a Power Probe 4 are the cheapest way to check certain injectors other than buying an expensive scan tool & a scope.

[@ADPTraining]

Ok
