Ignition Coil F Primary Control Circuit High
The primary control circuit of ignition coil F reads a voltage above the expected level — typically an open primary circuit or a short to battery voltage on the primary control wire. The ECU sees no normal current flow, coil F does not fire, and the cylinder misfires. Causes: an open or disconnected primary wire, an internal open in the coil, or a faulty ECU driver.
Affected components
- Ignition coil f
- Ignition coil wiring f
- Ignition module
Common causes
- High likelihood: Open circuit in primary winding or harness for coil F
- Medium likelihood: Control line shorted to battery or supply
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
