Ignition Coil Replacement

Most vehicle owners are familiar with spark plugs, but there is another component that makes it possible for spark plugs to do their job, and that component is the ignition coil. Ignition coil replacement is one of the services we offer at Parkway Car Care in Rowlett.

The job of the ignition coil is to transform the low voltage it receives from the 12-volt battery into high voltage, enabling the spark plug to generate the sparks that make the engine run.

When the ignition coil starts to fail, your vehicle may exhibit a variety of undesirable behaviors, including, though not limited to:

  • The engine may run poorly
  • The check engine light will likely come on
  • Slow acceleration or loss of power
  • Stalling

Is it possible to continue driving with a bad ignition coil? Yes, but the side effects can be dangerous. If your vehicle stalls on the freeway or in the middle of a busy intersection, it could create a dangerous situation for you and other drivers. Your pocketbook can be at risk as well; driving around with a bad ignition coil can lead to catalytic converter failure—catalytic converter replacement is a very expensive repair.

So if your car experiences symptoms that include slow acceleration, loss of power, or stalling, it’s time to take your car to Parkway Car Care in Rowlett and let our professionals diagnose and repair your vehicle.
