Ignition System Specifications Gap = Gap between electrodes, mm * = tightening torque 25 Nm Attention! Cars of recent years of production can be equipped with a modified ignition system. In this regard, it is recommended that when purchasing new...
General description of the ignition system The ignition system generates an ignition spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture injected into the combustion chamber. To do this, in the ignition coil, the voltage from the 12 V battery is converted into a voltage...
Safety measures when working with ignition systems In electronic systems, the secondary ignition voltage can be up to 30 kW (kilovolt). Under unfavorable conditions, such as humidity in the engine compartment, voltage peaks can break through the insulation, which, if...
High voltage wires — check 1. Turn off the ignition. 2. Disconnect tips from spark plugs. In this case, you need to pull not by the wire, but by the tip. 3. Disconnect the high voltage wires from the ignition coils. Before disconnecting, mark the...
Ignition coils — removal and installation Removing Vehicles with 1.4 liter engine (E7J) The ignition coil is located on the front wall above the brake fluid reservoir. 1. Disconnect the ignition distributor high voltage wire at terminal 1 of the ignition coil...
Knock sensor — removal and installation The fuel knock sensor is mounted on the cylinder head. With its help, the ignition control unit recognizes and prevents detonation of the fuel mixture in the cylinders. Removing 1. Vehicles with a 1.4-/1.6-liter petrol...
Ignition and fuel injection control unit — removal and installation Attention! If a new control unit is installed, contact a RENAULT workshop for programming and coding. This requires a scan tool to enter the required data, such as the anti-theft code or transmission type. Removing...
Spark plugs — marking The spark plug consists of an insulator with a housing, a central electrode, and one or more side electrodes. The central electrode is hermetically installed in the insulator, and the insulator is firmly connected to...
