To use fuses of the new type on the VAZ-2106, you need to install a new block instead of the old one. This is not difficult to do, just follow the tips.

Disconnect the negative cable from the battery. Carefully unscrew the old block with a 10mm wrench

Do not allow wires to become disconnected. Pull the block down. Install wires and jumpers according to the diagram. Please note that jumpers are installed only on those wires that come from the engine compartment with voltage. Jumpers are installed between terminals: 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8, 9 and 10, 11 and 12, 12 and 13. After this, remove the wires from the old unit one by one and install them on the new one. Check that all connections are correct. Be sure to ensure that the fuses are protecting the circuits they are supposed to.

For example, when you remove F5, the left headlight (low beam) should stop lighting. If the connection is incorrect, check the connections and jumpers

Be sure to make sure that the fuses are protecting the circuits they are supposed to. For example, when you remove F5, the left headlight (low beam) should stop lighting. If the connection is incorrect, check the connections and jumpers.

VAZ 2106 fuse box - replacement

As a rule, replacing fuses on a VAZ 2106 is carried out at the most unexpected moment. After all, they can fail at any moment. For this purpose, the driver should always have a set of new fuses with him, so that if they fail, they can be quickly replaced. But it also happens that repairing fuses alone cannot solve the problem. And then only replacing the fuse box in the VAZ 2106 helps. The old mounting block becomes unusable and thus, only replacing the fuse box in the VAZ 2106 is the only correct solution. Needless to say, after replacing the fuse box on a VAZ 2106, the driver will not be distracted for a long time by troubleshooting problems related to electrical components.

Reasons for repairing the ignition switch

Care and maintenance of a VAZ 2106 with an injection engine

The ignition switch of the “six” has 4 modes with different functionality:

  1. Mode “0” allows you to power only wires 30 and 30/1. Other functions are disabled.
  2. Mode “I” makes it possible to operate the running lights, fog lights, wiper drive, and heater motor.
  3. Mode “II” - in this case, the electrical wiring on the VAZ 2106 activates the turn signals, instrument panel and ignition system.
  4. The “III” position of the key provides power to terminals 30/1 and 30-INT. The car starter is working.


Underhood electrics of the VAZ six
Replacing the ignition switch with your own hands may be necessary for several reasons:

  • Firstly, this is possible in case of loss of keys.
  • Secondly, over time, the ignition switch cylinder wears out, and this affects engine starting.
  • In addition, there may be problems with the contact wire group, which can lead to a short circuit.

On cars of the “classic” family, the location of the lock is below and to the left of the steering wheel. Also see the article about the restoration of domestic classics.

And it consists of the following elements and parts:

  • lock body;
  • contact disk;
  • locking rod;
  • roller and contact sleeve;
  • block.

Checking the operation of the distributor

Electronic fuel level indicator

The fuel gauge sensor is one of the main control elements of a car. With its help, the motorist receives information, which is displayed on the front instrument panel, about the presence of fuel in the tank. This mechanism is based on a resistor with a moving contact (extreme resistance values ​​are 50-300 Ohms), which changes its state during the oscillation of the float:

  • If the amount of gasoline changes, the float moves and changes the resistance of the resistor;
  • As soon as the fuel volume reaches the smallest figure, the contact closes, and it notifies the driver about this. Typically the signal is output to a digital fuel level sensor. The light comes on when there are 5-6 liters left in the container. fuel.

Fuel level sensor resistor

If you notice that the device displays incorrect information or does not react at all to changing the amount of gasoline, you need to dismantle it, check its condition, and if faults are found in the system, replace it with a new one.

In Soviet-made VAZ vehicles, the control device is located directly in the tank. In order to save space, it is installed together with the fuel pump. Therefore, if you need to change the FLS (fuel level sensor), you will also have to remove the fuel intake. First of all, to gain access to the device, you need to remove the rear seat and remove the special hatch.

Fuel level sensor assembly with fuel pump

Carburetor engine

How does the wiring diagram for a carburetor engine work when starting the power unit:

  1. The driver turns the key in the ignition, and the system begins to supply power to this unit.
  2. All indicators and icons are activated on the dashboard; in this case, the equipment is powered by the battery.
  3. A low voltage is supplied to the coil, which is used to generate a high-voltage discharge. When the voltage passes through the module, it is converted into high voltage and supplied to the distribution node.
  4. By means of a high-voltage discharge, the drive of the distribution mechanism rotates the crankshaft of the Six engine. The distributor itself, in turn, closes the contacts and transmits the discharge through high-voltage wires to the spark plugs. Subsequently, this discharge is used to ignite the combustible mixture in the engine cylinders (the author of the video is the Avtoelektika HF channel).

Classic ignition

In accordance with the electrical diagram, a classic ignition includes the following components:

  • the castle itself;
  • coil;
  • distributor or distribution unit;
  • high-voltage cables with spark plugs.

Using a distributor, the primary winding of the module is interrupted, after which high-voltage voltage is supplied in a certain sequence to the cylinders. As stated above, a coil is used to convert low voltage to high voltage.

If nothing happens when you try to start the engine, the reasons may be:

  1. Damage to the wiring in the area between the module and the generator unit. In case of such a problem, it is necessary to diagnose the condition of the contacts, as well as the integrity of the electrical circuits.
  2. Failure of the coil itself. In this case, the functionality of the device can be checked using a spark - the cable is removed from the distributor and comes into contact with the body or engine of the car. If nothing happens when you try to start the engine, this indicates that the device needs to be replaced.
  3. Damage to the wiring in the area between the spark plugs and the distributor. In this case, it is necessary to diagnose the condition of the distributor cap, in particular, check the slider located inside, as well as the wires (the author of the video is the channel Alexander Amochkin Kolomna AAK).

Electronic ignition

VAZ 2106 cars were also equipped with electronic or contactless ignition (BSZ). The fundamental feature of such cars is that an electronic switch was additionally mounted between the distribution mechanism and the coil itself. In addition to the main components, the BSZ includes a switching device, as well as a sensor distributor.

With the help of the latter, control pulses are transmitted to the switching device to create a spark, after which the signals are distributed among the cylinders. The main purpose of the switching device is to convert control signals into a pulse voltage applied to the coil winding, in particular, we are talking about the primary winding. The presence of a switch helps improve discharge formation, especially if the power unit operates on a lean combustible mixture.

Advantages of contactless systems

For an ignorant car enthusiast, the main argument in favor of BSZ is the fact that at the moment not a single manufacturer produces cars with a contact-cam spark generation system. Foreign brands abandoned it in the distant 80s of the last century, and in the Russian Federation mechanical ignition lasted until the 90s. The reasons for the refusal are quite clear:

  • sparks constantly flashed across the contacts, causing them to burn and require frequent cleaning;
  • the contact group wore out quite quickly, on average it was enough for 15-20 thousand kilometers, after which the element had to be replaced;
  • the wear of the bearing on which the contacts were located made itself felt, which caused unstable operation of the power unit;
  • the springs of the balance weights were stretched.

Non-contact ignition produces a powerful spark, which makes fuel burn better

All of the listed malfunctions appeared one by one, haunting the owner of the “classic” Zhiguli. Due to an imperfect design, the spark power of the spark plugs was constantly decreasing, engine performance was deteriorating, and fuel consumption was increasing. New BSZ systems are free of such disadvantages; they are characterized by durability and stable sparking. The spark power also increased, since the output pulse voltage increased from 16-18 kV to 24 kV, which contributes to better ignition of the fuel.

Methods for checking temperature sensors

If the driver wants to make sure that the cause of problems with the car is the antifreeze sensor, then he will have to carry out a simple checking procedure. But before you start, you need to make sure the integrity of the car wiring. As mentioned above, for the sensor to work normally, it must be continuously supplied with a voltage of 5 volts. To make sure that the supplied voltage does not deviate from this value, you should start the car, and then remove the wires from the sensor and connect them to a multimeter. If the device clearly shows 5 volts, then there are no problems with the wiring and you can begin to examine the sensor itself. There are two verification methods. Let's list them.

Hot water test

The sequence of actions in this option is simple.

  1. The sensor is placed in a pan of cold water. An electronic thermometer is also placed there (it is much more convenient than a regular one, because the measured temperatures will be quite high).

Temperature, °CResistance, Ohm
+57280
+105670
+154450
+203520
+252796
+302238
+401459
+451188
+50973
+60667
+70467
+80332
+90241
+100177

This method of checking the sensor is simpler than the previous one, but less accurate. It is based on the fact that the temperature of boiling water reaches one hundred degrees and does not rise higher. Therefore, this temperature can be used as a reference point and find out what the sensor resistance will be at one hundred degrees. The sensor is connected to a multimeter switched to resistance measurement mode, and then immersed in boiling water. However, you should not expect the multimeter to show a resistance of 177 ohms, which corresponds to a temperature of one hundred degrees. The fact is that the temperature of water constantly decreases during the boiling process and averages 94–96 °C. Therefore, the resistance on the multimeter will vary from 195 to 210 ohms. And if the numbers produced by the multimeter differ from the above by more than 10%, the sensor is faulty and it’s time to change it.

Instructions for diagnosing and replacing electrical wiring

The task of a car's electrical wiring is to ensure high-quality transmission of electric current to all consumers included in the electrical circuit. If any device or component does not work, before changing it, it is necessary to test the electrical wiring that connects it to the power source and other components of the electrical network.

To check the electrical network you need to prepare:

  1. Multimeter.
  2. 12V test light with two wires.

1. Multimeter for checking electrical equipment


2. Indicator light for diagnostics

If you have problems with electrical appliances, you should do the following:

  1. Check voltage. To do this, the multimeter must be switched to voltage meter mode. One probe of the device must be connected to the mass, the role of which is played by the body. We connect the second to the power cord, having previously removed it from the device or instrument. If the tester shows the presence of voltage, then everything is in order. If there is no voltage, the source of the malfunction is located on the section of the circuit being tested.
  2. Short circuit. In this case, there is completely no voltage in the network. To check the mounting block, you need to remove the fuse and switch the tester into voltmeter mode. One probe must be connected to the terminals in the fuse socket. In this case, all devices included in the tested section of the network must be de-energized. If the numbers on the device jump when you move the wire, it means the wire is shorted.
  3. Grounding. Since VAZ cars mainly use a single-wire wiring diagram, it is necessary to check the quality of the grounding, since the body is used as a minus for electrical equipment. During operation, metal parts of the body oxidize, become rusty, and their fastening becomes loose. In this case, electrical contact is lost and electrical appliances operate intermittently.

Grounding testing is carried out according to the following algorithm:

  1. Remove the negative terminal from the battery. Connect one multimeter probe to the car body.
  2. The second probe is connected to the connection or ground point being tested.
  3. When values ​​appear on the device, they should be checked against the recommended factory parameters. If the values ​​match, then the grounding is OK.

Checking circuit integrity. This test is necessary to find open circuits.

The verification procedure is as follows:

  1. The section of the circuit being tested is de-energized: the negative terminal on the battery is disconnected or the corresponding fuse is removed.
  2. To test the circuit, the multimeter wires are connected to its ends, and one of the probes is connected to ground.
  3. If numbers appear on the display, this indicates the integrity of the circuit. If nothing appears on the screen, then there is a break in the circuit.

When replacing electrical wiring, use standard wiring or homemade wiring using elements from the standard one. You can use wiring from another car if it meets its specifications.

To replace the wiring, you need to disassemble the front part of the car. If the length of the wires is not enough, they should be increased. All connections must be well insulated. It is better to connect the wires by soldering. It is not advisable to twist the ends of the wires.

How to prevent wiring malfunctions?

What you need to consider to avoid problems with electrical circuits:

  1. The procedure for replacing wires must be performed with electrical appliances and the battery turned off.
  2. Disconnecting and connecting battery contacts is only allowed with the ignition off.
  3. When checking the wiring, a short circuit must not be allowed; this can lead to damage to electrical appliances.
  4. Do not use metal tools to remove safety devices.
  5. Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is running. As a result, the car owner may face the problem of failure of the voltage regulator and other components of the circuit.
  6. If the functionality of the diode bridge of a generator set is being checked, the use of a megohmmeter powered from a network with a voltage of more than 12 volts is not allowed.
  7. When welding the body, the battery and generator must be disconnected. It is also necessary to disconnect the ECU, if present, from the power supply.
  8. It is not allowed to carry out repairs or replace wiring when the engine is turned off.
  9. Periodically recharge the battery and clean its terminals.
