Discussion and questions related to the course Practical Motorsport Wiring - Club Level
Hi Guys. I have a question about "Grounding Design video Module" of "Practical Wiring - Club Level" section.
In the Video Zac is saying:
When the coil fires, the secondary winding current travels to the spark plug either via an HT lead or a direct connection for a coil on plug setup, and then jumps the gap from the centre electrode to the ground strap of the spark plug and heads out into the engine block.
06:17 From here it needs to make its way back to the coil secondary winding, as the current does flow in a closed loop.
06:23 This is why the majority of direct fire internally ignited ignition coils will have a pin that connects to one side of the secondary winding.
I can't understand this scheme, The path of flowing current and the point where that pin is connected to the secondary wiring of the coil. can we discuss it? I will try to attach the scheme of common coil
Here is a small piece of ECU VQ30DET Scheme with the ignition coil on it. So, two questions:
1. Where is exactly that pin which is connected to the secondary wiring?
2. What is the direction of current flow in the secondary wiring? I don't understand the following:
06:17
From here it needs to make its way back to the coil secondary winding, as the current does flow in a closed loop.
Please help, sorry if i'm being stupid here
I think I found it (1st attached)

Is this correct now? Please confirm 🙏
