Ignition coils
Share
Delphi has released 12 new ignition coils, covering over 2.9 million vehicles including BMW, Jeep, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and Subaru applications from 1991 to 2012.
Part numbers: GN10335, GN10401, GN10404, GN10413, GN10442, GN10445, GN10447, GN10484, GN10504, GN10529, GN10542 and GN10574.
Inventory will be available in the Q3 2014.
Ignition coils operate in a tough environment. Stresses created by vibration, temperature changes, and even the failure of spark plugs and other components can cause ignition coil wiring to break or short out. The insulation inside the ignition coil can also fail, causing energy to escape.
Delphi says it backs up its ignition coil design with intelligent manufacturing. Delphi uses winding process techniques to control the length of wire between adjacent windings. That’s important because more length results in greater voltage differences, which can create more pressure that could break down the insulation and wire coating.
Delphi says it has analyzed the environment that ignition coils must withstand and is combating failure issues with high-quality design and materials. Delphi’s ignition coil design uses proven materials, such as high quality wires and wire coating that resists the cracks, pin holes and imperfections that most often lead to failure issues. Delphi also uses an epoxy vacuum technique to reduce air bubbles in the epoxy, because having fewer air bubbles increases the epoxy’s insulating quality and reduces the chances of energy punch-through failures.
