Hi all I need some advice. I have a 2005 Velociti 1.4I. In recent months it has been losing power from the coil. I have replaced it several times with issue coming back again. I have wrecked my brain trying to locate the problem. If I leave the car to stand for a while them it will start again. Any advice as to where I can look for the problem?

Welcome Gary!!

By loosing power what do you mean? Check the coil that its properly bolted to car body so it get good ground and check the power ignition wire is getting 12v and signal wire is getting excited as well. Note high voltage area risk of electric shock

Check notifs setting to make sure you don't miss replys
