Re: [FWDLK] dual points or electronic?



hey neil,
 
the only tests you can do on an electronic system would be an impedence test on the reluctor [pickup coil] which has a window of ohms it should fit into- less tells of a coil crossing or just plain defect.  as for the module- they either work or they dont-  always be sure they are solidly grounded- a floating module or mod mounted to plastic will not work....
if you're using a used stock module- just check the silicone-like sealer on the underside of the module- some stock mod's material melts out by chemical breakdown- which doesnt mean the module is bad, but it will lead to corrosion of the component board, and probably lowers the rate of heat dissipation of the unit...
 
thats about it i'd say.  you can also check coil resistance... but they're also a "works or doesn't" item
