In a nonelectronic small engine ignition system, which of the following ignition components is energized by the power source first?
Check the ignition fuse also check the ignition switch
crankshaft sensoryes because if the ecm isn't getting a signal from the sensor it doesn't know at what orientation the crankshaft is and won't let the ignition system start the engine. that's how i understand it to work
A 'spark ignition ' engine is your regular gasoline engine as opposed to a diesel, which is a 'compression ignition' engine
the computer and the ignition module give power to the injectors.
I've replaced ignition switch, and starter solenoid, checked fuses, and battery, but I don't seem to be getting any electrical through to start the engine. I can jump everything and get the engine to turn over but not start.
Check the ignition coil for power. Check the crank position sensor, and make sure that the engine is turning over ( timing belt not broken.) Check to make sure that fuel is getting to the engine as well.
the diesel engine. it takes one ignition to start, then it runs off of (autoignition) ignition from heat caused by high compression. compression ignition (autoignition) causes ignition to happen a little earlier than spark ignition engines (gas engines) which is less vulnerable to risk of engine knocking or wasted power when dealing with high compression. -maddmatt
test for power before the coil, if you have power change the coil, if not trace the wires back and check for broken parts or bad connections.
No! The ECM is the Electronic Control Module (Computer), sometimes called ECU, Electronic Control Unit. The ignition switch is just that, the switch that controls the engine ignition, the power to the starter, starting and shutting the engine off, and power to the accessories.
If you cut the engine, you will lose power steering.
check to see if there is voltage to coils with key on engine off. if no voltage check ignition switch, if switch has no power going through it then there will be no voltage to any part of the engine. hope this helps ya!! also check all fuses in fuse boxes,
