P0358 on Ford
Ignition Coil H Primary/Secondary Circuit Malfunction
P0358 on Ford vehicles indicates ignition coil h primary/secondary circuit malfunction. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Ford model — most commonly on F-150. The ECM/PCM detected a primary or secondary circuit fault on ignition coil 'H' (8+ cylinder engines). The expected coil pulse/feedback was missing or invalid, pointing to the coil, its wiring/connector, or its PCM driver. Typical repair costs on Ford range from $200 to $800, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of P0358
- •Faulty ignition coil 'H'
- •Open/short in primary or secondary wiring
- •Corroded or loose coil connector
- •Bad spark plug overloading the coil
- •Failed coil driver in the PCM
P0358 on Ford by Model
Ford F-150(1 issue)
- Coil-On-Plug (COP) Ignition Coil Failure — Misfire and Rough Idle (Triton V8)1997-2008
The 4.6L and 5.4L Triton V8s use one coil-on-plug per cylinder, and these coils are a very common failure item — subjected to heat, vibration, and moisture from cowl leaks — typically starting after 80k miles. A failed coil sets a cylinder-specific misfire (P0301-P0308) and often a matching coil-circuit code (P0351-P0358), causing a shake at idle, hesitation, and a flashing check-engine light. Repeat failures on the same cylinder usually mean oil is leaking from the valve-cover gasket into the plug well and shorting the coil.
