Delphi Adds New Ignition Coils For More Than 11 Million Vehicles

As of Jan. 1, 2013, Delphi ignition coils carry a three-year/36,000-mile warranty.

 

TROY, Mich. – Delphi has announced the addition of six new ignition pencil coils covering more than 11.4 million Chrysler, GM and Toyota vehicles from 1998 to 2011. Part numbers include: GN10309, GN10310, GN10311, GN10312, GN10313, GN10314.

 

Delphi says it backs up its innovative ignition coil design with intelligent manufacturing and uses a winding process technique to control the length of wire between adjacent windings. More length results in greater voltage differences, which can create more pressure that could break down the insulation and wire coating.

111066DelphiIgn_00000061678Delphi has analyzed the environment that ignition coils must withstand and is combating failure issues with high-quality design and materials, including high-quality wires and wire coating that resist the cracks, pin holes and imperfections that most often lead to failure issues.Delphi says it also uses an epoxy vacuum technique to reduce air bubbles in the epoxy, because having fewer air bubbles increases the epoxy’s insulation quality and reduces the chances of energy punch-through failures.

As of Jan. 1, 2013, Delphi ignition coils carry a three-year/36,000-mile warranty. This applies to coils purchased after Jan. 1, 2013. All other ignition related products still carry a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty. Coils purchased on or before Dec. 31, 2012, carry the 12-month/12,000-mile warranty.
