The COIL HAS A POSITIVE AND A NEGATIVE TERMINAL. If you look at the top of the coil, it is generally marked + and - on the top.

Does a fault code PO-353 which says Ignition Coil C Primary-Secondary Circuit mean that the coil needs to be replaced?
Not necessarily. It means that is the component being effected. It may mean the coil is bad. The coil should be tested.Not necessarily. It means that is the component being effected. It may mean the coil is bad. The coil should be tested.
Why are both negative and positive voltages generated as the magnet passes through the coil?
In this context, 'negative' and 'positive' are used to indicate the sense, or direction, of the induced voltages, as voltages do not have electric polarity (+ or -). The direction of the voltage induced into a conductor is determined by the direction of that conductor relative to the magnetic field. As the coil rotates, the directions of each side of the coil reverse relative to the field, and the induced voltages reverse too.
What do you call a diode installed across a coil with the cathode toward the battery positive?
A diode connected in this way is a flyback diode or kickback diode. There are some other names that may be applied. The diode is a protection device. When power to the coil is discontinued, the electromagnetic field around the coil will collapse. The collapse of that field will induce a voltage, and this could expose circuit elements to "kickback" from the field collapse. The polarity of the induced voltage will, however, forward bias the diode, and it will conduct current for an instant. The inductive kickback of the coil will thus be damped by that diode.
What is the function of an electrical coil in a basic circuit?
There are a couple of examples that come to mind where there is a coil in a circuit. One is, the coil is used as a choke to block harmonics from going down the electrical line. Another example of a coil in the line is the coil in a magnetic contactor. When this coil is energized the contacts of the magnetic contactor close.
What is coil span factor and distribution factor?
coil span or coil pitch is defind as the distance mesured in terms of armature slots(or armature conductors) between two sides of a coil.
How do you get fire to the primary coil?
Instal a swithhed direct line from the batterie to the positive side of the coil Instal a swithhed direct line from the batterie to the positive side of the coil
Where does the negative and positive wires go on a Chevy 350 coil?
look at the coil, it is marked - or +
How do you connect battery and coil in a 1950 dodge wayfarer with positive ground?
make sure the coil is a positive grounded coil, most are negative ground. battery just hooks up opposite to usual the coil is the only thing u need to make sure of
The positive side of a coil is fed from the what switch?
ignition
What does it mean when i have no fire but i changed out my ignition coil and my pick up coil inside the distributor on a 1987 ford bronco 302 v8 fi?
Your coil has a positive and negative side and if there is no power to the positive side you will not have any spark: However, if you have no ground to the negative side you will have the same problem. Check for power and ground with a volt meter.To check for power, connect red lead from volt meter to positive side of coil and black lead to negative side of battery, you should read 12 volts with key on. To check ground, connect black lead from volt meter to negative side of coil and red lead to positive side of battery, you should read 12 volts with key on.

Should both negative and positive sides of a coil in a 71 dodge dart be hot?
No, just the positive side is hot.
What is the purpose of balancing valve in ahu?
To maintain positive pressure in the AHU coil
What does coil bound mean?
When the coil spring is completely compressed and the coils are touching

You have maxima 2000 it is working just 5 ignition coils and the last is stopped you chacked it but you found the problem with voltage it doesn't feed breakly with the coil so you need answer?
The coils have constant voltage to them, each a branch of 1 or 2 coil power wires. the coil "fires" by alternately grounding and ungrounding the negative terminal of the coil. with the key in the "on" position (engine off) there should be constant power (battery voltage) to the positive terminals of the plugs of every coil. If you attach a test light to the positive coil terminal and probe the negative coil terminal on any of the coil plugs, then crank the motor, you should see the testlight flash. If the light stays on there is a short on the coil ground(bad wiring or the computer is keeping it on). If the light doesn't go on at all, the coil ground is open (broken wire or a driver in the computer burnt). If the light does flash and there is power on the positive side, the coil itself is probably bad.
Why do you have only 6 volts at positive side of coil on 1987 w250?
The resister cuts the voltage to 6v.. in run pos,Will send 12v to coil in start pos.
