Zero adjust your meter 200 1991

Anil,

As you're using an analog multimeter (the one with moving needle) please ZERO ADJUST your meter prior to measuring resistance. You might get inaccurate resistance readings if you don't adjust it. Also pull off all wires to ignition coil prior to measuring.

See below:

To measure resistance between terminals 1 and 15, set dial to X1 position. This for low ohm reading for the primary winding of the coil. Compare with the list below. To measure resistance between terminal 1 and centre high voltage terminal, set dial to X1K or X1000 position. In this position you have to multiply the reading by a thousand. This for high ohm reading for the secondary winding of the coil. Compare with the list below.


About the resistance specs of the your ignition coil:




Regards,
Amarin
