Ignitor

Used to run older 'dumb' coils via 5v logic from the ECU. Also known as amplifier, power transistor, ignition module.

1 Channel

Bosch 0 227 100 124

This single channel module can be used to drive a single high-current coil.

Connector
Pin-out
  • 1 = Coil negative output
  • 2 = Power Ground
  • 3 = Input screen (if used)
  • 4 = 12V supply
  • 5 = Spark input signal
  • 6 = NC

Bosch 0 2227 100 137

This is very similar to the 124 but the spark input signal is on pin 6

2 Channel

Bosch 0 227 100 200

This dual channel module can be used to drive a high-current wasted spark coil-pack for full spark control on a four-cylinder engine, or a pair of COPs on a two-cylinder engine.

Connector
Pin-out
  • 1 = Coil negative output 1
  • 2 = Spark input signal 1
  • 3 = NC
  • 4 = Power Ground
  • 5 = NC
  • 6 = Coil negative output 2
  • 7 = Spark input signal 2

4 Channel

Bosch 0 227 100 211 "211"

Typically used on VW Golf 1.8t yr 2000.

This four channel module is typically used to drive four COPs on a four-cylinder engine, it could also be used to drive a pair of high-current wasted spark coil-packs for full spark control on an eight cylinder engine.
