6F2-2 IGNITION SYSTEM (FOR H27 ENGINE)
General Description
The ignition system is a direct ignition system. It consists of the parts as described below and has an electronic
ignition control system.
•ECM (or PCM)
It detects the engine condition through the signals from the sensors, determines the most suitable ignition
timing and time for electricity to flow to the primary coil and sends a signal to the igniter (in ignition coil
assembly).
•Ignition coil assembly (including an igniter and an ignition coil)
The ignition coil assembly has a built-in igniter and ignition coil which turns ON and OFF the primary current
of the ignition coil according to the signal from ECM (or PCM). When the ignition coil primary current is
turned OFF, a high voltage is induced in the secondary wiring. One ignition coil is in charge of ignition of one
cylinder only.
•Spark plug and noise suppressor
•CMP sensor, TP sensor, ECT sensor, IAT sensor, VSS, knock sensor and MAF sensor
For their details, refer to Section 6E2.
This ignition system does not have a distributor and high-tension cords but each cylinder has an ignition coil
assembly (igniter and ignition coil) and the secondary voltage which occurred in the ignition coil is sent to the
spark plug directly. Also, the signal(s) are sent from the CMP sensor to ECM (or PCM) so as to control each igni-
tion coil independently through the igniter (in ignition coil assembly).

Step Action Yes No
1Was “ENGINE DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLE” in
Section 6-1 performed?Go to Step 2. Go to “ENGINE DIAG-
NOSTIC FLOW TABLE” in
Section 6-1.
2 Ignition Spark Test
1) Check all spark plug for condition and type,
referring to “SPARK PLUG” in this section.
2) If OK, perform ignition spark test, referring
to “IGNITION SPARK CHECK” in this sec-
tion.
Is spark emitted from all spark plugs?Go to Step 8. Go to Step 3.
3 Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Check
1) Check DTC stored in ECM (or PCM), refer-
ring to “DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
(DTC) CHECK” in Section 6E2.
Is DTC stored?Go to applicable flow table
corresponding to that
code No. in Section 6E2.Go to Step 4.
4 Electrical Connection Check
1) Check ignition coil assemblies for electrical
connection.
Are they connected securely?Go to Step 5. Connect securely.
5 Ignition Coil Assembly Power Supply, Ground
and Trigger Signal Circuits Check
1) Check these circuits for open and short.
Are circuits in good condition?Go to Step 6. Repair or replace.
6 Ignition Coil Assembly Check
1) Substitute a known-good ignition coil
assembly and then repeat Step 2.
Is check result of Step 2 satisfactory?Malfunction of ignition coil
assembly.Go to Step 7.

6F2-6 IGNITION SYSTEM (FOR H27 ENGINE)
Ignition Spark Check
1) Remove surge tank cover.
2) Disconnect injector coupler (1).
3) Remove spark plug and check it for condition and type, refer-
ring to “SPARK PLUG” in this section.
4) If OK, connect ignition coil coupler to ignition coil assembly
and connect spark plug to ignition coil assembly. Ground
spark plug.
5) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
If no spark is emitted, inspect the related parts as described
under “DIAGNOSIS” in this section.
6) After checking, install spark plug, referring to “SPARK PLUG”
in this section.
7) Connect injector coupler (1).
8) Install surge tank cover.
Ignition Timing Check and Adjustment
1) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are
switched off.
3) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.
Refer to Section 6E2.
4) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC (1) with ignition switch
OFF, restart engine and fix ignition timing by using fixed
spark mode of SUZUKI scan tool.
Special tool
(A) : SUZUKI scan tool WARNING:
Without disconnection of injector coupler, combustible
gas may come out from spark plug holes during this test
and may get ignited in engine room.
NOTE:
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift
lever in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T
model), and set parking brake.
