Pelican provides an article for testing the coil, see: https://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/Porsche_944_Turbo/31-ENGINE-Coil_Testing_and_Replacement/31-ENGINE-Coil_Testing_and_Replacement.htm

When describing Figure 8, Pelican says the black wire is the power wire and green is the ground wire. If this is correct, how are you getting any voltage on the green wire? I would expect 12v on black and 0v on green.

PS: the article also suggests tests for measuring coil resistance to see if its working.
