Kia Stinger CK: Ignition System / Ignition Coil

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual / Engine Electrical System / Ignition System / Ignition Coil

Description and operation

Description

An ignition coil is an induction coil in an engine's ignition system which transforms the battery's low voltage to the high voltage needed to create an electric spark in the spark plugs to ignite the fuel. Coils have an internal resistor while others rely on a resistor wire or an external resistor to limit the current flowing into the coil from the battery 12 V supply.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Parking distance warning - reverse

The rear parking distance warning - reverse assists the driver during backward movement of the vehicle by chiming if any object is sensed within a distance of 120 cm (47 in.) behind the vehicle. This system is a supplemental system and it is not intended to nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of the driver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the back sensors (1) are limited.
