Automotive Repair Glossary : Ignition System Definition

Ignition System

Definition: The various components that control the igniting of fuel in the engine's cylinders. The ignition system has two parts: the primary side (the distributor and electronic control module), and the secondary side (the ignition coil,distributor cap, rotor, spark plug wires and spark plugs). In distributorless ignition systems, there is no distributor. Each cylinder has its own ignition coil (see Coil-On-Plug Ignition), or coils are shared between paired cylinders that are opposite one another in the firing order (See Distributorless Ignition System).
