To remove the ignition coils, the first step is to remove the engine cover.

Front ignition coils:

1. Disconnect the ignition coil connector. Just press the back of the connector and you will see the tab rise at the front and release from the lock. With the connector unlocked, pull it out of the ignition coil, always holding and pulling the connector, never the wires.
