I've never used an Ohm meter before can someone tell me which settings I'm supposed to be using ?
The setting the manual is asking for is (ohm) x 1K for the spark plug cap and (ohm) x 1 for the coil. as you can see my Ohm meter has different settings, which one do I use for (ohm) x 1K and which for the (ohm) x 1.
I can also use some help understanding the testing procedure below, if the drawing depicted is accurate with the (+) test lead on the sparkplug wire and the (-) on the connector for the orange wire am I testing for Primary winding resistance ? the orange wire goes to the Ignitor unit.
If I then switch the (-) test lead to the other connector for the red/white wire am I testing for the Secondary winding resistance ? red/white goes to the main switch.
I've tried testing the coil on all 5 Ohm settings and these are my results.
2000K = 014 plugwire & red/white
200K = 13.7 plugwire & red/white
20K = 13.74 plugwire & red/white
2000 = no reading. plugwire & red/white
200 = no reading. plugwire & red/white
2000K = 014 plugwire & orange
200K = 13.7 plugwire & orange
20K = 13.74 plugwire & orange
2000 = no reading. plugwire & orange
200 = no reading. plugwire & orange
The 13.7 is ballpark for the Secondary specs but not seeing anything close to the 4 ohm for the Primary leads me to think I'm not testing this thing right, I would really appreciate some help !
