I assume you have something like a V12 with two banks of 6 cylinders each fed with a separate coil. I suggest you pull the lead off one of the plugs (with the engine off, naturally) and push a big nail inside the plug lead. Hold the end of the lead between two pieces of wood to insulate it and start her up. Point the nail as close to the spark plug as you can without touching it (or to any clean point on the engine block, like a bolt head you have sanded shiny) and see if you get a rhythmic spark (or any spark at all). No spark = no electicity. It doesn't actually prove the COIL is faulty because it might be that the coil is not getting any electricity supplied to it, but it's a start.

What is the function of an electrical coil in a basic circuit?
There are a couple of examples that come to mind where there is a coil in a circuit. One is, the coil is used as a choke to block harmonics from going down the electrical line. Another example of a coil in the line is the coil in a magnetic contactor. When this coil is energized the contacts of the magnetic contactor close.
What is a voice coil?
a voice coil is the electromagnet that causes a speaker horn to move in response to the electrical impulses received from the amplifier.
How do you use a multimeter tester on dryer coils?
Generally, dryer coils either work or they don't. A multimeter can help you determine if a dryer coil is "burned out". If the coil has "continuity", it's probably fine. Generally, if there is a hot spot in the coil it will burn out rapidly.
How does a speaker and a microphone work in opposite ways?
A microphone converts sound into electrical impulses. A speaker converts electrical impulses into sound. Because they both work on the same principle, a changing electrical field (the audio signal) in a coil causes a magnet within the coil to vibrate in tandem. The magnet is attached usually to a paper cone which allow our ears to hear the sound. The converse is also true. For example if you talk into a headphone it causes the magnet to vibrate which produces an electrical signal in the coil which is connected to the headphone cable. Ram did this : ok micro phones convert mechanical energy which is te air from your mouth to mechanical ugh ohhhhhhh cccrapp 8=======D---
What is made by passing an electric current through coils of wire?
An electro magnet is created when a current is passed through a coil of wire. This effect is the main operation of how an electrical solenoid operates.
How can I troubleshoot a faulty lawn mower ignition coil?
To troubleshoot a faulty lawn mower ignition coil, first check for loose or damaged connections. Next, test the coil with a multimeter to see if it is producing the correct amount of electrical resistance. If the coil is not functioning properly, it may need to be replaced.
How do you determine if the ignition coil is faulty?
Swap it with a known good coil. Give us the year, make, model and engine info for more info.
No fire on 1969 350 engine with hei and accel super coil just replaced with new coil still no fire possible faulty distributer?
On a high energy ignition, possible problems include: Faulty keyswitch, faulty wiring or connectors, faulty pickup inside the distributor, faulty electrical condenser, if it has points (depends on the type of HEI) the points could be bad, faulty coil or faulty HEI control module. You will need to identify which component has failed.
How can one determine the torque on the coil in a given electrical system?
To determine the torque on the coil in an electrical system, you can use the formula: Torque Current x Number of Turns x Magnetic Field Strength x Area of the Coil. This formula takes into account the current flowing through the coil, the number of turns in the coil, the strength of the magnetic field, and the area of the coil. By plugging in the values for these variables, you can calculate the torque on the coil in the given electrical system.
How do you change the coil pack on a 1998 xk8?
To change the coil pack on a 1998 Jaguar XK8, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Then, remove the engine cover to access the coil packs. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the faulty coil pack, unbolt it from its mounting, and replace it with the new coil pack. Finally, reconnect the electrical connectors, reattach the engine cover, and reconnect the battery.

Would the ignition coil in a 1997 cavalier be the reason the car is so noisy?
Only if a faulty coil is causing a misfire. A faulty coil can be diagnosed easily by connecting an oscilloscope and looking at the waveforms.
How do you change a bad coil on a 2003 Ford Expedition?
Remove engine cover, determine which coil is bad or better yet replace them all. Remove the electrical connection from ignition coil, remove 7/32 bolt from coil (be careful not to drop),pull coil from top of sparkplug and remove.
What is the best way to deal with faulty electrical equipment?
The best way to deal with faulty electrical equipment is to have it repaired or replace it.
What makes coil pack not fire on 2 sides of it?
It is faulty
Why is the light not turning on?
The light may not be turning on due to a burnt-out bulb, a faulty switch, or a problem with the electrical wiring. Check these components to determine the cause of the issue.
