Pick-Up Coil: Testing and Inspection
Air Gap Measurement:
Inspect Air Gap
- Using a non-magnetic thickness gauge, measure the air gap between the signal rotor and pickup coil projection.
Air gap: 0.2 - 0.5 mm (0.008 - 0.020 in.)
- If the air gap is not as specified, replace the distributor housing assembly.
Connector Identification:
Inspect Signal Generator (Pickup Coil) Resistance
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.
Pickup coil resistance (Cold):
G1 and G-
125 - 190 ohms at -10 40°C (14 104°F)
G2 and G-
125 - 190 ohms at -10 40°C (14 104°F)
NE and G-
155 - 2400 ohms at -10 40°C (14 104°F)
- If the resistance is not as specified, replace the distributor housing assembly.
