Ignition System
The basic components in the ignition system are a storage battery, an induction coil, a device to produce timed high-voltage discharges from the induction coil, a distributor, and a set of spark plugs.
What are the parts of an ignition? The following are common ignition system components:
- Battery
- Distributor Cap and Rotor
- Ignition Coil/ Coil Packs/Coil- On-Plug (COP)
- Spark Plug Wires
- Spark Plugs
- Ignition Module
- Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
- Crankshaft and Camshaft Sensors
An ignition issue can be caused by a faulty or failing ignition coil, spark plug, or spark plug wire set. These critical components of your ignition system keep your engine running smoothly. … Ignition coils and wire sets are fairly straightforward to replace.
