Ignition System Specifications Gap = Gap between electrodes, mm * = tightening torque 25 Nm Attention! Cars of the latest years of production may be equipped with a modified ignition system. In this regard, it is recommended to check the type of the...
General description of the ignition system The ignition system produces a spark that ignites the fuel-air mixture injected into the combustion chamber. To do this, the ignition coil converts the 12 V battery voltage into a voltage of up to 30,000 V. As for the...
Safety precautions when working with ignition systems In electronic systems, the secondary ignition voltage can be up to 30 kW (kilovolts). Under unfavorable conditions, such as humidity in the engine compartment, voltage peaks can break through the insulation, which leads...
High Voltage Wires — Checking 1. Turn off the ignition. 2. Disconnect the spark plug tips. When doing this, pull the tip, not the wire. 3. Disconnect the high-tension wires from the ignition coils. Before disconnecting, mark the wires so that you...
Ignition coils — removal and installation Removal Cars with 1.4 liter engine (E7J) The ignition coil is located on the front wall above the brake fluid reservoir. 1. Disconnect the high tension wire from the ignition distributor at terminal 1 of the ignition...
Knock Sensor — Removal and Installation The knock sensor is installed on the cylinder head. With its help, the ignition control unit recognizes and prevents knock combustion of the fuel mixture in the cylinders. Removal 1. Cars with a 1.4-/1.6-liter gasoline...
Ignition and fuel injection control unit — removal and installation Important! If a new control unit is installed, contact a RENAULT workshop for programming and coding. This requires a diagnostic tool to enter the required data, such as the anti-theft code or gearbox type. Removal...
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 sealed in the insulator, and the insulator is firmly connected to the...
