E-36 Coils Test

[JUS]

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE RESISTANCE ON THE IGNITION COILS? ON A 1995 325I CONV.

THANKS

325i coil resistance

The bentley manual states 0.4-0.8 ohms between pins 1(-) and (15+) "the outside pins".

How can you/do you test (and what equipment/tools) the resistance on the igniton coils as I would like to test mine as I suspect I may have a a coil thats not performing all that well?

You will need an ohm meter. They are easily found at any hardware store, Sears, Radio Shack. There will be instructions with it if you buy a new one.
