Component DescriptionNJEC0542IGNITION COIL AND POWER TRANSISTORNJEC0542S01The ignition signal from the ECM is sent to and amplified by the
power transistor. The power transistor turns on and off the ignition
coil primary circuit. This on-off operation induces the proper high
voltage in the coil secondary circuit.

ECM Terminals and Reference ValueNJEC0544Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
