6. On distributors with the pickup separate from the
module assembly, you can check the pickup using
your Ohm meter. Connect the leads from your
Ohm meter to the 2 leads of the pickup. If you
show a resistance of 50 to 200 Ohms, the pickup is
functioning correctly. If the Ohm meter shows an
open circuit, the pickup should be replaced. Once
replaced, perform the module and pickup assembly
test procedure again as shown above.
5. Keeping your hands away from the coil leads, tap
the blade of your screwdriver to the metal strip of
the magnetic pickup assembly where you mea-
sured the air gap. Each time you tap the blade to
the metal strip, the light on your tester should flick-
er. If the light flickers off or on, your magnetic pick-
up and module are functioning correctly.
