Coil On Plug Ignition (COP) : Articles and videos

Post by Alan »

Matt Dixon from Southern Illinois University Carbondale has put together a great presentation on the different types of coil on plug ignition (COP).

A presentation can be found here http://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/auto_pres/24/
A shorter article based on the same material was published in the July 2011 issue of Underhood Service magazine http://www.underhoodservice.com/Article ... ences.aspx

Enjoy, and as always if you spot any articles that may be of use to other PicoScope users please add a link in this "Best Of The Web" section.

A great video showing how to test a 4 wire Toyota COP. Shows secondary using COP probe, primary current and trigger signal.

Another great video from ScannerDanner - the title sort of say it all How to Test a 4-wire C.O.P Ignition Coil



If you like the video, then check out his book. One of the best ways of spending $50 - http://www.scannerdanner.com/
