To test an auto ignition condenser, first, disconnect it from the ignition system. Use a multimeter set to the capacitance setting to measure the condenser’s capacitance; it should be within the manufacturer’s specified range. If the reading is significantly lower or shows an open circuit, the condenser is likely defective. Additionally, you can perform a basic test by checking for continuity; a good condenser should show no continuity when tested with a multimeter in the resistance setting.

Does a magneto ignition use a different condenser than a battery ignition?
Yes, a magneto ignition system typically uses a different type of condenser than a battery ignition system. Magneto systems require a condenser designed to handle the high voltage and rapid discharge associated with self-generating power, while battery ignition systems utilize condensers suited for lower voltages and longer discharge times. The specific characteristics of each condenser are tailored to the operational requirements of their respective ignition systems.

What does a condenser do in a breaker points ignition system?
In a breaker points ignition system, a condenser, or capacitor, serves to store and release electrical energy. When the breaker points open, the condenser discharges its stored energy, which helps to create a stronger spark at the ignition coil. This results in an improved ignition of the air-fuel mixture in the engine's combustion chamber. Additionally, the condenser helps to prevent arcing across the breaker points, prolonging their life and ensuring reliable operation.
The function of the condenser in a breaker points ignition system is to?
The function of the condenser in a breaker points ignition system is to keep the points from sticking together. If the points stick together during ignition it could cause the points to burn up. The condenser sends a signal to the points and then takes the signal away to make the points separate.
