An ignition coil is attached to the top of the cylinder head cover. Inside the coil, there is a primary coil that receives 12V battery power and a secondary coil that generates high voltage.

The current generated by the secondary coil will be grounded in a spark plug, and the Engine Control Module (ECM) will decide ignition timing.
