- In this video I'll show you how to replace the ignition module in a Husqvarna 550XP mark II chainsaw. The job is pretty straight forward and actually a lot easier than previous models. #smallenginerepair

I have a 2018 MK II , no issues. Love that saw!!
The early ones, the first auto tune saws, had a few issues but it seems they have them worked out now.
Great vid, looks like a very well made powersaw!
I feel its a good all around saw.
Love my 550mk2! Good class as always!
Thanks for joining class!
Im new to your channel, and am loving it. All my equipment is husqavarna. Great production valve, your head shot explaining the repair is a nice touch
Thanks for tuning in!
I've got the 545 Mk II....what a great saw. Small powerful package. Thanks for the vid
Yes thats a great little saw!
The best breakdowns ive ever seen! Thank you so much for the help!
Thanks for watching!
I’m glad you brought up something that I was thinking. These videos are more reference than how to’s. You need hands on experience. Take care and have a great Thanksgiving.
When I started doing these vids I didn't consider them teaching tools. I was just filming what I was doing. Heck I even considered talking about non repair related topics with the repair rolling in the background. I quickly realized many people were looking for repair videos and others were just looking to see how someone else was doing it. If I was filming these on my own time and not the company clock they would be more of a how to video.
@@TheGreasyShopRag amazing how your site is progressing. You’re getting a wide variety of people. Also the amount of people keep rising….congratulations. Thank you for all the work you put into them.
@@steveriggenbach90 Yes I'm seeing slow steady growth. Thanks for contributing to that.
I’ve Done a Few and Some Had Spark But Just at The Wrong Time The New IGN Coil Fixed Them All 😀😎😀 Nice Job
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Thanks for video, really like it and wish something like this existed when I started repairing small engines.
Just one thing, if you replace ignition coil and its different part number than what you had on saw( because of new series or update), you have to update that od CST software.
Keep up good work, LATER!
Correct. If its a different number then you need to do an update of the firmware.
Saw looks pretty new. Think that'll be a common problem?
I think this IS a common problem with 5 series. My 572XP had its module/coil die after just a few hours of use. Same thing; "we ordered the part, but it will be 3 or 4 months". I bought the part from far away dealer who had one in stock and screw the warranty.
@@rooster3019 Coil problems have been worse in the last few years. I wonder if a supplier had some issues.
Got a kick out of the repair tag, lol
I really like that on the Mk II saws for both the 550 and the 562, the electronic control for the carburetor isn't mounted underneath the flywheel. One less step to the replacement process!
Ya the first time I saw that I had to wonder what they were thinking hiding that wiring behind the flywheel.
Good work....later bud
Good vidio as always, i thought when replacing a coil on these 5 series you needed to connect with the service tool and put the coil numbers into the carb autotune. Is that correct🤔 please let us know
If its the same part number coil then you don't need to update the firmware.
Hi Mr greasy hope please I want to compare between Husqvarna and Stihl chainsaw which one do you prefer. Which one you think is good and can last longer also which one is easy to repair.
Thanks
Stir the pot much??? Both are great saws if you get a pro series! I think my Huskys are a bit smoother far as vibration compared to my Stihls but both great saws!
Hey Scott, where do you recommend I buy a Husqvarna ing module and how do I know a decent price? I replaced one on my 326LDX off amazon for 20, saw them as much as 80 elsewhere. thanks
I mean...ya get what you pay for. Those $20 units are cheap. I like using oem even if they are used. Call a dealer for msrp and if its decent just buy it. If its expensive then look for a used unit on ebay for half the price of new.
Are the 2024 550xp mark 2’s good still?
I haven't seen a 550 come in for repair in a long time. Interpret that however you want but I think they are good saws.
Question. Been learning about several models/manufacturers. But looking for a stihl or Husqvarna to completely finish. Easy to find parts , low cost and a nice saw. Any ideas to hold me thru a winter? Thanks
Are you doing this just to build a saw and flip it or do you have specific needs. Either way I'd stay away from Mtronic and Autotune to keep costs down.
@@TheGreasyShopRagno needs, except knowledge. Looking for low piece part cost. I have about 4 in boxes that can’t get parts for. I will also learn more about part swapping. If all this makes sense lol
@@steveriggenbach90 What are those models in the boxes?
@@TheGreasyShopRag I will have to check for the exact…. Sears roper craftsman, small homlite, one that starts with S. Husqvarna 36 bad coil and brake. SORRY w/o looking that’s all I can remember. Ones with different bad areas I tackled. I can give more info later.
@@steveriggenbach90 Ya some of those can be hard to get parts for. A nice Husqvarna 345, 350, 0r 365, 372 might be a good project.
Pls so which should I get, I want pro chainsaw from Husqvarna under $1,000.
Thanks
If you're looking for middleweight saw check out the 555 and the 562XP. Both are 60cc saws with slightly different personalities. 555 is smooth and grunty and 562 is a bit more peaky. Go down or up (in size) from these two saws depending on your needs.
They just release the 562xp mark II. If you need the latest and greatest then there ya go. Otherwise there may be some dealers looking to move old 562's.
Hi Question What size gap gauge do you use on a 550xp none mark11? Replaced the coil on my 2018 model, It idles fine but won't take full Throttle, Its surging, Took it to the Dealer and had the firmware updated , still the same any suggestion's would be greatly appreciated 1 Thanks
The air gap should be set at .3mm. Not sure about the surging but first I would want to know if it does it without the bar and chain.
@@TheGreasyShopRag Ok never tried it without bar and chain will try that Thanks👍
@@sandyhull5379 I guess I was just wondering if there was any binding.
I just mounted a new coil, the saw starts easily but dies as son as I touch the throttle ore after a short time in idle. The old coil is made in 2021, the new coil is made in 2022 and has a different parts number. Do I need to take the saw to a shop and have the coil pared with the carburetor due to a newer coil? Thanks in advance from sweden..🙂👍
During a firmware update the system asks which coil is installed so it does make a difference. I'd say yes if you used a different part number coil you will have to get it updated. Having said that, you may have other problems.
@@TheGreasyShopRag thank you very much fore your quick reply..🙂👍 the saw run perfectly well until the coil gave up. I suspected an air leak because I took the carb of to clean the saw. After mounting the carb I heard a hissing sound when I purged the saw. The hissing sound came from the tank valve so that shouldn’t be the problem? Everything looks fine and I can’t see any leaks when I spray the saw with soap water..🤔 I guess I have to spend the money and take the saw to the “Doc”..🙂👍
Hi did you find the problem I have the same problem with my saw. Changed the coil and it acting the same as you describe, I took it to a dealer and Had the firmware updated And its still the same. Wondering if you found the problem? It worked fine until the coil gave up.
@@sandyhull5379 the problem still remains..🫤
