Raybestos has added several training videos to the resources section of its website to demonstrate proper brake repair techniques and provide the knowledge needed to perform the perfect brake job, said the company.

“Have you ever wondered why it’s important to match OE specifications on lightweight rotors? Do you want to learn how to properly perform a master cylinder bench bleed? Automotive professionals will find answers to these questions in addition to many other helpful tips and useful information when they watch the new ‘how-to’ training videos located on the Raybestos website,” said Kristin Grons, marketing manager, Brake Parts Inc.

The new Raybestos training videos can be viewed on the raybestos.com website by clicking on the “Resources” tab and then on “How-To Videos” on the drop-down menu. Topics include:

  • Properly Remove a Caliper
  • Types of Brake Fluid
  • Overfilled Master Cylinder
  • Brake Fluid Discussion
  • Brake Bleeding Process
  • Plated Calipers Discussion
  • Coated Rotors Discussion
  • Brake Lubrication Discussion
  • Isolation Test
  • Lightweight Rotor Comparisons
  • Master Cylinder Bench Bleed
  • Hub Bearing Replacement ’04 Escalade
  • Ford F-150 Rotor Replacement
  • Brake Inspection

The videos can be viewed free of charge, 24 hours a day, seven days a week and can be revisited as often as necessary at brakepartsinc.com/raybestos/en-us/how-to-videos.

Ignition Coil Output

To see inductance inside the primary windings, use an amp probe placed around the positive wire for the ignition coil.

Kilovolts or kV is the unit used to measure the output of an ignition coil. Some coils can output 20kV to 40 kV. So, how does an ignition coil turn system or battery voltage into these huge voltages? The answer is inductance. 

The ECM provides the voltage to the primary coil winding. The primary winding might have 100 turns around the coil’s core or plates. When the voltage to the coil is turned off, a magnetic field collapses. The collapsing field will generate more than 100 volts thanks to inductance. The energy is transformed by the windings in the secondary with inductance again, but thanks to the 10,000 windings, the voltage is boosted to 40kV at the spark plug’s electrodes. The best way to see inductance inside the primary windings is to use an amp probe placed around the positive wire for the ignition coil. With this setup, you can see the current ramping in the coil and the collapse of the magnetic field.
