Ignition coils are a small, but vital part of engine performance. On the ASE A8 test, you’ll be tested on engine performance, which includes identifying potential ignition coil failure.
In a new episode of Tech Test Prep, Carley Millhone shares what you need to know about ignition coil failure to pass the A8. Sponsored by Blue Streak by Standard.

How does the vehicle know when to release the brakes? You guessed it. Active ABS speed sensors. Sponsored by Standard.
Standard is proud to offer a complete line of more than 2,600 ABS speed sensors, gas, diesel, electric, or EV, import or domestic. Standard has you covered.
In the past decade or so, we've seen a number of new technologies in the automotive industry. One of these is Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, also known as ADAS. There are a number of systems which fall under the ADAS umbrella, so to speak. Including blindspot detection, lane keep assist, parallel parking assist, trailer backup assist, adaptive cruise control, and much, much more.
Use an oscilloscope for an efficient diagnosis.

Wires should be replaced at the same time as spark plugs. This video is sponsored by Autolite.
On older throttle cable systems, the carburetor or fuel injection system reacted to the throttle angle.
This function of the power management system uses several modules to decide when the engine needs to stop and start.
To see inductance inside the primary windings, use an amp probe placed around the positive wire for the ignition coil.
Finding out if the vehicle has the latest version or calibration on a module is a required step.
