I assume you are talking about the starter relay or solenoid coil. If the engine is cranking but not starting, the coil is most likely good. If Nothing happens, check battery voltage at the coil. If voltage is present, coil (winding inside the solenoid or relay) is most likely bad. If no voltage present, then check for corrosion, loose terminal fittings, or any wire or cables that go from the battery to the starter.

How do you know there is spark to the plugs and coil on a 1974' chevy 350 engine?

Connect a known good spark plug to a spark plug wire and ground the threads to the engine while cranking. If there's spark to the electrode you know the coil is good and it's sending current through the wire.

How do you test the coil on lesabre 3800 engine?

I think you remove one of the spark plug wires from the coil and hold it far apart from the coil. Have someone turn the key so the car is turning over. Bring the spark plug wire closer to the coil and if there is spark the coil is good. Note: if you hold to close you will get a very good jolt of spark if the coil is good, that is why you start far away and work your way closer.


How do you diagnose a bad coil pack on a 5.4 liter ford?

This is how I diagnosed my 5.4 liter coil packs, I isolated the cylinder that was misfiring and then took a know coil from a good cylinder and swapped with the suspected bad coil. When the misfire went to the specific cylinder I swapped, I replaced that coil. Note- It is advised to replace all coil packs if you can afford too! Summit and Stylin has Hi performance coils for the fraction of cost as a single cost of the dealer's price.
