Remove it and test it. A good service manual for your car should tell you what to look for. If you don't have an ohm meter to test it, remove the coil and take it to a reputable auto parts retailer in your area.
The car may misfire or not accelerate properly
You can test the ignition coil on a car by using a multimeter. A bad ignition coil can be the cause of a car not starting.
It could either be a bad ignition coil, a bad ignition rotor, a bad ignition cap, a bad ignition control module (if equipped), or a bad coil to cap wire.
Yes, a bad coil will prevent the ignition from firing and the engine will not start.
The engine will either not start, or run poorly if the coil is bad.
A bad ignition coil will cause your engine not to have any spark. Without any spark the engine cannot start or run.
Ignition coil is bad, is it right on top of the cap maybe a bad wire in the wirng harness or bad connector.
When an ignition coil goes bad the car will not run right, or not at all. An intermittent coil will cause shudder, or a jerking motion. When the coil has no output then the cylinder that the coil feeds cant burn the fuel and cause power.
when the hall effect and ignition module are good, the injectors and coil no work maybe this sensor is bad
bad pick up or bad ignition module
You bet. A bad coil and you have no spark to the plugs. No spark and the fuel cannot be ignited.
