Pick-Up Coil Resistance Check

  1. Disconnect distributor connector from wiring harness. Connect ohmmeter leads to distributor connector terminals that mate with Orange and Purple wires of control module.
  2. Measure resistance of pick-up coil. Reconnect distributor connector to wiring harness. Resistance should be 400-1000 ohms. If resistance is not within specification, replace pick-up coil assembly.
