About NISSAN Ignition Coils Spare Parts

Ignition coils are a part of your Nissan's ignition system and connect either physically or sit atop the spark plug. They are also known as compact electrical transformers and work by helping to convert the 12-volt current in car batteries to a higher voltage necessary to ignite the fuel and start your engine. Most newer car engines make use of one coil for each cylinder, although some ignition systems in older vehicles utilize just one coil for all cylinders.

If your Nissan has the following problems, you may need to replace the ignition coils.

• Poorer fuel efficiency than normal
• Illuminated "check engine" light possibly caused by faulty coils that trip the engine computer
• A hard-to-start vehicle, especially when one coil is used for all cylinders since a faulty coil would fail to provide the engine with any spark
• Rough idling and engine jerking
• Backfiring, which occurs when unspent fuel in the combustion cylinders leaves through the exhaust pipe
