An ignition coil can fail due to several factors, including overheating, which can result from prolonged use or inadequate cooling. Electrical issues, such as short circuits or voltage spikes, can also damage the coil. Additionally, corrosion or wear in the coil's internal components can lead to a breakdown in performance. Regular wear and tear over time, especially in older vehicles, can further contribute to coil failure.
A bad ignition coil normally won't allow your engine to start given there is no spark. If it is starting to go bad, it causes misfiring which can be noticed as a stutter, or random shake of the engine. Check the ground of the coil before replacing it.
Bad ignition coil
the ignition control module could be the problem
Just a suggestion. I would look into the condencer on the coil you will see it hanging on the right side if the coil.
Crank sensor has failed,Ignition control module (ICM) has failed,Bad ignition coil pack,
The Ignition Coil is the one that cause misfire or Spark Plugs
The ignition coil is inside the ignition distributor.
if you do not have spark you will not have fuel check coil module and ignition pick up coil.
No. The coil provides the spark and the module tells the coil when to spark.
No spark can be as simple as a ecm fuse blown, a bad ignition switch, defective ignition module or a bad coil.
It would REALLY HELP to know the year. Could be these things. Ignition module in distributer, pick-up coil in distributer, Bad COIL wire, Rotor button. Depending on the year 1996 and up it could be a CAM sensor, CRANK sensor, Ignition coil, ignition module.
The 1998 Toyota ignition coil is located on the firewall, in the engine compartment. The ignition coil can be found on the passenger side of the firewall.
