The Acura Legend Igniter is the electronic switch that interrupts the coil primary current to produce the high voltage spark to start and run the V6. Early first generation cars were equipped with a distributor-based Igniter that was guided by magnetic pickup pulses in conjunction with centrifugal and vacuum advance. In the second generation Legend models, the ignition system was an independent Igniter that was controlled by the engine computer and the crank sensor inputs to give exact timing. Both styles share the same job of chopping current so the collapsing field of the coil can jump to roughly 15,000 volts, but the computer-controlled version eliminates mechanical play, increasing power, economy and emissions control for Acura drivers. When an Igniter fails, the engine may crank without firing, so checking for test light flicker at the coil negative post or measuring resistance with a DVOM helps pinpoint the fault fast. Replacement is easy: unplug the harness, remove two screws, install the new Igniter and check for flicker while cranking. Owners of Acura sedans should also listen for the relay click feeding the module, as without it the Legend will stay silent.
