[QUOTE="MLC2, post: 398684, member: 8655"] I believe its a similar ignition system to the ST. I don't know if the ECU is clever enough to realise it is missing a crank angle sensor signal when cranking and flash a code. Yes you should see switching across the coil terminals when you crank the engine, but I am not sure if you would be able to detect it with an ordinary multimeter. You could try wiring a bulb across and see if it flickers but it's not something I have ever tried. The coil has got an ignition module bolted to the side of it and its possible this may have failed. You can do a basic resistance check on the coil. Don't know the exact figures but I would expect 1.0 to 1.5 ohms across the primary winding (the two plug terminals) and 8 to 12 K ohms across the secondary. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
