Power output stages for ignition coils,
checking


Note:

Power Output Stage -N122 (black connector)
activates the ignition coils for cylinder bank 1
(cylinders 1 to 3).
Power Output Stage 2 -N192 (brown connector)
activates the ignition coils for cylinder bank 2
(cylinders 4 to 6).

Checking activation of power output stages

- Disconnect harness connectors from all six fuel
injectors.

Note:
It is important to ensure that no fuel is injected
during the test as this would damage the catalytic
converter. The harness connectors on the fuel
injectors must therefore be disconnected.
