btmaldon Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Is there anyway of checking the wireing to the coilpack? Also where did you buy the coilpack? We had one car (SportKA) that wouldnt run using various after market coils and had to buy a specific one from Ford before the thing would run right.

We had one car (SportKA) that wouldnt run using various after market coils and had to original coil back on pecific one from Ford before the thing would run right. cheers for the reply i bought the coil pack from eBay but it's the same part number but i suppose it could be a crapper and as for the wiring it looks fine from a distance i just dont fancy stripping all the loom back .also when i put the original coil pack back on after i got the ecu back it ran Ok for about 4 days and the it just went downhill again so maybe it is wiring (oh no) lol I might buy another new coil as well we're do you suggest getting one from .maybe euro parts or do you suggest Ford (How much) lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Your best bet is to replace both Coils and leads at the same time and stick to genuine equipment. Aftermarkets dont work too well with the Ford's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdeMk1 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Try fordpartsuk for the coils :) slightly cheaper than Ford but still genuine parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 what was the break in? one of the leads? and was it a replacement that resolved the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am told it was a break in the harness and it was just a case of repairing the wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
