When Monitored:
With battery voltage greater than 8 volts during engine cranking or greater than 12 volts with engine running,
engine rpm less than 2016, and none of the coils in dwell when checked.
Set Condition:
Peak current is not achieved with battery based dwell plus 1.5 ms of diagnostic offset. It takes less than 3
seconds during cranking or up to 6 seconds while running to set.
