Re: testing ignition coil 700 1987

No the power stage is located behind air mass meter mounted on the inside fender sheet metal. It is the driver or amplifier for the coil. It is controlled by the Ignition control unit (ECU) which is a computer and is located in the dash near steering wheel column. You hope that it is not that. Thankfully the hall sensor and the power stage are far more likely to fail than the ECU.

Hall or PS can fail with or without heat. Hall has a connector on bottom of distributor which can cause trouble and breaks off easily.

Good Luck
