Nissan Sentra Spark Plug Wires, Ignition Wires

Spark plug wires run between the distributor (or ignition coils in direct-ignition systems) and spark plugs. They transfer high voltage needed to create a spark that starts the combustion process. Located in the engine bay, these wires are subject to high temperatures and vibration created by the engine, which may lead to various damages to a wire and reduced conduction. The wires are made very durable, but once any of them starts malfunctioning, spotting such an issue can be rather hard, as it can be intermittent, and its symptoms are similar to those given by bad spark plugs.

To check your wires, start with the visual inspection of the wires and their boots. There must be no scorch marks or cuts, as well as corrosion. Also, inspect the place where the wires connect to the distributor. Spring clips should hold the wires solidly. Quite often, automakers indicate the nominal resistance for each spark plug wire of the given engine in repair manuals, and damaged wires often don't correspond to required values. Furthermore, you should remember that ignition problems in your Nissan Sentra may be caused by other malfunctioning pieces.
