    Hi! I really don't know anything about car so please help.
    My car is a suzuki swift 2006 automatic.
    Just last week, kapag naka neutral or park, kumakadyot or yung parang mamamatayan nag makaina.
    dinala ko siya sa evangelista and sabi ng mechanic sa ignition coil daw ang sila pero wala kasi sila ng part na yun kaya hindi napalitan.

    1. masisira ba yung makina if ginagamit ko pa din yung kotse?
    2. how much kaya yung ignition coil?
    3. meron ba kyo marrecommend na ok na repair shop?
    4. lastly, since second hand nabili yung car, yung left head light ko putol metal na kung san naka connect, parang dinikit lang nung binilhan namin kaya ngayon natangal na siya, meron din ba kayong alam ng shop na pwede ipa welding yun?

    thanks

    with the igntion coil, first check the resistance of the primary coil (between the positive and the negative terminals). this is done by using an ohmmeter- the reading should be around 1 ohm with the coil around ambient temperature. then check the secondary coil resistance between the positive terminal and the high voltage terminal- resistance should be less than 10 thousand ohms. if you could see the coil, run the engine in the dark and observe if the coil is glowing or has stray sparks (corona effect) specially if the humidity is high or if you spray a fine mist of water around the coil with the engine running. if the coil glows or displays some arcing, the coil insulation had been breached and the coil is a candidate for replacement. another thing you can experiment on is, to run the engine and tune your radio to amplitude modulation (AM) usually around 1400 on the dial, if you hear static or ticking noise from the speakers propotionate to your engine speed, the coil is leaking high voltage.
    as with the headlight, sounds like you are talking about the terminal of the bulb coming off. the usual and correct repair procedure is to replace it

    Better isolate muna kung ignition coil nga ang sira. Kung umaandar ang makina ay ibig sabihin ay gumagana ignition coil. Pero pag matagal na umaandar ang makina ay iinit talaga ang ignition coil sa mga contact point type system. Yun mga lumang ignition coil mahina magbigay ng high voltage kung maiinit na ito.

    Para malaman kung weak na yun ignition coil pag maiinit. Patayin mo makina at balutin ng basang basahan ang katawan ng ignition coil para lumamig. Then paandarin uli makina. Kung lumakas uli ang takbo ng makina ay pasira ng nga ignition coil mo.


    Baka September ay pwede na ko benta ng Multiple 6 spark cdis ko na pwede sa contact point type na makina. Hindi agad mapudpod contact point at hindi iinit ang ignition coil. Kahit na yun weak ng ignition coil ay magagamit pa rin dahil hindi nga abutin na iinit ito.
