There is two different kind of ignition on the mx3 if its a RS 4cyl, its using an external coil with is easy to locate following the wire from the distributor, its located near the fuse box on the driver side. if its a GS 6cyl, its using an internal one in the distributor, so you dont have any external coil.
Note : RS from 1994 or more use an internal one similar to the GS one (but cant be interchanged)
bad ignitor or coil .
Is it possible an electrical problem can cause my engine coil to burn on my Mazda 323
It sounds like the Camry has lost power to the coil. Check the wiring from the coil to the power, and check the coils ground circuit. Either of these can cause the problem.
I have a Mazda B2000, 1986. Two items, the "ignitor" and the "pickup coil" inside the distributor are the next items to check. Ignitor is more likely to go bad. It can be checked at Autozone for free, maybe other stores as well. pickup coil can be checked with ohm meter. If not shorted or open, it should be OK. I have fixed this before, but now I have it again and I checked all of the above and still no solution. From what I have read, the vehicle has an "ECU" (computer) that can also cause this problem.
there is no distrobutor on a GTE only a GE motor the GTE is coil/ignitor ingnition
left(front) bank. middle coil(2-4-6)
It's either mounted on top of the coil bracket, or on the wall to the left of the coil.
Where is the igniyion coil on a2002 mazda protege
if the vehicle has a 1.9 eng. Coil is located on end of engine (drivers side)
check your points to see if they are correctly gapped
The engine code P0355 is for a malfunctioning ignition coil. This can be fixed by replacing the coil. It can be purchased at any auto parts store.
If it is on a 1996 Mazda millennia or similar year model, the coil packs on the 2.3 engine on the front are simple. If they are on the back this is a little tricky getting to them. Some wiring harnesses need to be moved around.
