Best Answer

Remove the kill wire from the ignition coil. It's the only wire that doesn't go to a plug. Remove one of the spark plugs. Reconnect the plug wire to the plug that has been removed. Make sure the threads of the plug are touching metal on the engine somewhere. Crank the engine. Should see spark.

If not, bad coil.

How do you test an lawn mower ignition coil with a meter when the ignition coil is the lawn mower?

what are you trying to measure and with what type of meter? generally we check the module with a spark tester. if there is no spark with the spark tester we check the kill wires and any safety switches that may cause a no spark issue and if all that still shows no spark then we replace the module.

How do you test the ignition coil on a Kawasaki fc540v lawn mower engine?

I have a similar problem with a kawasaki mower. it was running fine, emptied the catcher and wouldn't restart. Found plug fouled, no start with a new plug. removed coil, and with an ohm meter tested continuity of poles to each other, inconclusive. found a good coil from a different B&S mower and compared readings. Kawasaki had continuity with plug lead and center pole on pick-up, B&S did not. I assume the center pole is grounding out the plug lead, so I will replace the coil and see.
