1989 312-8 Kohler M12 no spark-need advice

Recommended Posts

Tried to start my newly restored 312-8 today, and I have no spark.

I have a brand, new OEM Kohler 47 584 03-S ignition module in it.

--Tested the ignition kill wire to the module and it is working as intended.  Showing continuity to ground with key off, and open circuit to ground in run/start position.

--Magnets are clean, and the magnet to module gap is .015".

Following an old Kohler manual that I have.

--I tested primary circuit and it's showing 2.47 ohms. Not good according to my old Kohler manual as it states a range of 1-1.3 ohms.

--Tested secondary circuit and it's showing 20 ohms. Not good according to my old Kohler manual as it states a range of 7.9-10.85 ohms.

Can someone verify the ohms range that a new manufacture ignition module should be?

You may be misreading the secondary resistance - Should be 7,900 to 20,000 ohms. This is also written as 7.9K to 20K with K being 1000.
