Testing the coil packs on my 1992 Grand Prix?
I am having problems with my ignition system; specifically a misfire that gets worse when rpm rises. The control module tested OK, also the plugs and wires. I tested the 3 separate coils in the pack and the resistance of the primary and secondary circuits was well within normal specs, BUT on one of the coils there is also current flow between the secondary and primary circuits; the other two have no such connection. I know that would be normal for the older single coil type coils but what about these? Is there SUPPOSED to be an electrical connection between the two circuits or is this a short? Each separate coil has two separate high voltage towers going to different spark plugs. According to my Haynes manual they are connected to the opposite sides of the secondary high voltage circuit but it says nothing about testing for an electrical connection between the primary and secondary windings or whether there should be. Do I have one bad coil, or TWO?
The easiest way to test ignition coils on a 1992 Mustang 2.3 is to use an ohmmeter on the leads going into the coils.
There is a total of 4 ignition coils.

There is about three ignition coils , one for each 2 valves ...
The ignition module is located under the three ignition coils. The same bolts that hold the coils in place also retain the module to the mounting bracket. To find the coils, follow the ignition wires from the front of the engine to where they attach at the rear. The wires clip to the coils.
Disconnect the battery. Remove the ignition coils. Remove the ignition control module that was under the coils, and replace it.
The ignition coils are located on top of every single sparkplug ( on distributorless engines).
A system where the Ignition Coils are located on top of the spark plug boots... Coils powered by the ECM.
It depends upon cylinder in car. 3 ignition coils - 3 cylinder engine. 4 ignition coils- 4 cylinder engine.
The ignition module is under the ignition coils The coils are bolted to the frt of the transmission housing. Follow the ignition wires to the coils The coils are bolted to the module underneath The module control spark to the spark plugs. It sends the required signal to the coil as to when to fire t then fires and "sends" the spark through the ignition wire to the spark plug
The ignition module is right underneath the ignition coils. The ignition coils are what the spark plugs attach to. My alro was riding really rough so i just changed my coils and module for $200 and it runs like new. All you do is unplug the wires, unscrew the coils(6 bolts) and there is your module. :) Hope this helps!!
The 3.0 litre V6 engine in a Lincoln LS has ( 6 ignition coils ) with the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system
