harrod7159 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 right, so after much fettling i've found that i can get a spark on the HT lead going from the coil to the dizzy when i hold it near an earth (engine block) but only when i turn on or off the ignition, not when i'm cranking the engine over.So sounds like it could be the hall effect sensor not telling the coil to spark?Anyone else had/overcome this problem??My chilton manual suggesting grounding pin 25 on the Ignition control unit under the splash plate just above the bonnet to see if 2 volts appears over the coil, it doesnt. any idea what relay/fuse controls said item? i get the two volts when ignition is turned on, as the manual says i shouild but not when the pin 25 is grounded.Its a 93 vr6 golf with OBD1 engine if it helps!!!Ta, Dave Link to post Share on other sites

kilokilla 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 I would also check the ignition module on theback of the ignition lock as this can cause the problem you are suffering with.Carl Link to post Share on other sites
