I agree, but the challenge is to obtain a good one. Using those specifications certainly provides you with an indication of problems. Recently I returned two new Ignition modules, Primary : 129 ohms and Secondary 1.55 K ohm, which I bench tested and then installed. I confirmed that it was defective- no spark. It was made by one of the oems SEM . I am now awaiting another unit made by FHP Elmotoren, an oem which I found recently. The vendor tested it and photographed the results of his ohmeter which were promising. It may work.When you are dealing with an electronic ignition module, due to the semiconductor package that switches the primary, there is really no valid test that you can do with an ohm meter. Only positive troubleshooting is to replace it with a known good one.
