Signs of damage to the coils in the car, how can it be tested?

For those who do not know coils, they are one of the most important electrical parts in the car, as the components of the car are divided into two parts, either a mechanical part, such as the engine and brakes, or electric , such as the alternator and the battery,   which helps to give the car a good performance while driving,

Function of car coils:-

Its task is to convert or amplify the electrical voltage issued by the battery to give sufficient strength and effort to form the spark, which is used by the spark plugs in the car to start the engine. This process takes place in a very few seconds, which is very accurate,

What about the signs of damage to this important part of the car?

About the signs of damage to this important part of the car, one of the specialists indicated that there are a group of signs that indicate damage to this important part of the car are:

1. Car engine overheating.
2. The appearance of ripping or cutting while driving the car, which is reflected in the weak torque of the car engine.

How can the coils be tested in the car?    

And about how to test this important part of the car, one of the specialists indicated that the driver can drive with this step himself, through a set of simple steps:

First :-

Start the car, then lift the hood and head to the coil section on top of the motor.

Secondly : –

In the event that there are four coils, which is the most used number in cars, disconnect the plug of the first coil and notice the sound of the engine spinning. .

Third :-

Return the plug to its place, then repeat the same previous steps with the second, third and fourth coils.

After completion, you will determine the coil that does not change the sound of the engine when you remove the plug that conducts electricity to it, and it is damaged and you have to change it.

How to repair and maintain coils:-

• After opening the car, you will find the cover of the machine and it is fixed with screws. Loosen these screws and raise and remove the cover.
• After removing or lifting the cover of the machine, you will find the coils, which are black and attached to the machine.
• Begin to undo the screws fixing the coils with the key one by one until you finish removing them all.
• There is a plug connected to each coil, pull the plug.
• Pull the coil upwards until you can remove it from its place.
• Note the place that was taught in the coil and you will find there is a void between the penis and the skin, and the greater this void, the more it causes the smuggling of electricity.
• Start winding the checkerton tape on the coil, taking into account that you start winding from the top of the separator place in the part of the penis and continue wrapping until it covers the place and the bottom of the separator, taking into account that the winding process is done in a circular manner, taking into account that the work is done carefully so that there is no The zigzags, i.e. the adhesive tape, are evenly, and the wrapped layers do not exceed the two layers. If the layers of adhesive are thick, you will not be able to insert the coil in its place again, and thus the place of smuggling has been linked, the sponsor of the skin attached to the rod, which is called the coil flange, since if it was cut any Part of it, this causes cutting the car and the electricity of the machine and makes you feel that the machine is muffled and as if it is about to explode and does not accept stomping and its sound appears loud, so the chicroton is wrapped to the end of the coil skin ,Also, if this skin is cracked and its edges swollen, it also begins to leak electricity and causes cutting and an annoying sound, and the car does not accept trampling once and for all.
• When you finish returning the coil, reconnect the plug for the coil, and the previous process is done with all coils, and the order is taken into account, where each coil is returned to its own place, and its screws are installed again. Take care during the connection that the screw does not come loose from you, and you will be exposed to a problem.
• Re-cover the machine and fix it with screws again.
