How Does the Ignition System Work?

The purpose of the ignition system is to create a spark to ignite the cylinder of an engine. This spark must happen at exactly the right time. If the timing of the spark is off by a small fraction of a second, the engine will run poorly or not run at all.

The ignition system has two tasks to perform.  First, it must create a voltage high enough to jump across the gap of a spark plug, thus creating a spark strong enough to ignite the air/fuel mixture for combustion.  Second, it must control the timing of that spark, so it occurs at the right time. When both of these things occur in perfect working order the spark will ignite the cylinder in the engine and start the vehicle. There are a number of ways that the ignition switch could fail in your vehicle with problems like a wiring issue or corrosion in the switch itself. Any of these can be determined by an automotive locksmith doing a diagnostic of the system.
