Coil Pack failures are very common in models from 1999-2000. This will lead to unsteady idle, misfires, and Check Engine Lights, in some cases, blinking Check Engine Lights which are the most critical.

Coil Pack failures need to be addressed quickly. Weak spark to the spark plugs can lead to much more fuel left unburnt in the engine, passing directly to the catalytic converter. This shortens the catalytic converter's life considerably, possibly even ruining it enough to raise another Check Engine Light requiring it to be replaced for several hundred dollars (US Dollars!).

There are several online vendors that sell 1999-2000 coil packs. They typically run online for about $260. This includes 2 ignitors and the coil pack bracket/assembly. (See links below for recommended vendors). However, some vendors sell only the ignitors that you can easily replace for a more competitive price.

Replacing the coil pack is not difficult. It is only held by 3 bolts, and 2 electrical plugs. (see below for a tutorial link).

How do you remove an ignition coil after removing the two bolts on a 1999 Mazda Miata?

There is a third, 10mm bolt on the bottom of the coil pack. It is very difficult to reach without a small ratchet set or a flexhead wrench. When replacing the coil pack, many Miata owners have mounted it with just the two main bolts and skipped replacing the small 10mm bolt at the back without ill effects.

What is the resistance on a coil pack on a 02 Mazda milllenia?

The resistance for a coil pack on a 2002 Mazda Millenia typically ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 ohms for the primary winding and around 6,000 to 15,000 ohms for the secondary winding. It's important to measure the resistance with a multimeter when the coil pack is disconnected from the vehicle to ensure an accurate reading. If the resistance values fall outside these ranges, it may indicate a faulty coil pack that should be replaced. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for specific specifications.
