Describe how you would take a systematic approach to troubleshooting a "no spark condition" in an ignition system.

What will be an ideal response?


After you have determined that the ignition system is not sparking the plug you must identify the type of ignition system before you can isolate the cause. For example with a points type system you would check the contacts and condenser, you would also be sure to check the obvious such as the condition of the spark plugs, the switches and grounds. Then check all of the connections. After checking the connections you should check each component for proper resistance and AC voltages.
