Bosch 02102 Ignition Condenser

The Bosch 02102 is a high-quality ignition condenser designed for breaker-point ignition systems in automotive applications. This essential ignition component works in conjunction with the distributor points to ensure reliable engine performance and prevent premature wear of the contact points.

Key Features:

• Prevents premature burn-off of breaker points by suppressing arcing when points open
• Provides low-loss interruption of primary current for optimal ignition performance
• Essential component for proper operation of breaker-triggered coil ignition systems
• Manufactured by Bosch to strict OEM quality standards
• Connects between the distributor points and the negative terminal of the ignition coil

Ignition condensers (also known as capacitors) are critical components in points-type ignition systems. When the points open to fire the spark plug, the condenser absorbs the electrical energy that would otherwise arc across the points, extending their service life and maintaining consistent ignition timing. The Bosch 02102 delivers reliable performance for vintage and classic vehicles equipped with traditional points-based distributors.
