What does engine code P1320 mean?
Error Code P1320 is defined as Ignition Signal, or Ignition Coil and Power Transistor. This code is set when the ignition signal in the primary circuit is not sent to the PCM (powertrain control module, also known as ECM or engine control module in other vehicle makes) during engine cranking or running.
What is ignition signal primary?
The ignition coil primary circuit is turned on and off by the power transistor. This on-off operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil secondary circuit. The malfunction is detected when the ignition signal in the primary circuit is not sent to the PCM during engine cranking or running.
What does p1320 mean on an ignition coil?
We’ll be looking at the ignition coil and power transistor. Code P1320 is indicated when ignition signal in the primary circuit (of the power transistor – built into the coil on this vehicle) is not entered during engine cranking or running.
What are the possible causes of p1320 code?
P1320 Possible Causes 1 Faulty power transistor unit built into ignition coil 2 Ignition primary circuit is open or shorted (circuit to ignition coils) 3 Ignition primary circuit poor electrical connection (circuit to ignition coils) 4 Faulty ignition system condenser 5 Crankshaft position sensor circuit
What does p1320 stand for in Powertrain Control Module?
In the past, when I have been tasked with diagnosing a stored code P1320, it has meant that the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected a malfunction in the ignition system primary voltage signal.
What is the error code for ignition coil?
Error Code P1320: Ignition Coil and Power Transistor. Error Code P1320 is defined as Ignition Signal, or Ignition Coil and Power Transistor.
When to use the p1320 ignition code?
Code P1320 is indicated when ignition signal in the primary circuit (of the power transistor – built into the coil on this vehicle) is not entered during engine cranking or running.
What are the possible causes of a Nissan p1320?
P1320 NISSAN Possible Causes 1 Faulty power transistor unit built into ignition coil 2 Ignition primary circuit is open or shorted (circuit to ignition coils) 3 Ignition primary circuit poor electrical connection (circuit to ignition coils) 4 Faulty ignition system condenser 5 Crankshaft position sensor circuit More
