Ignition Coil Resistance

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 39 other vehicles, including the 1992 Saturn SL2, 1992 Saturn SL1, 1992 Saturn SL, 1992 Saturn SC, and 1992 Pontiac Sunbird. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Disconnect leads from ignition coil. Using an ohmmeter, check ignition coil secondary resistance (secondary tower-to-secondary tower). Secondary resistance should be less than 10,000 ohms. Ignition coil primary resistance value is not supplied by manufacturer. If ignition coil is suspected of causing misfire or no-spark condition, switch coil locations on ignition module. If problem follows questionable coil, replace original coil.
