electronic ignition
Modern engine starter
Electronic ignition is a system that starts an engine or appliance using electrical signals rather than mechanical parts.
In automobiles, it replaced older breaker-point systems with solid-state components for more reliable spark timing: Cars with electronic ignition rarely need tune-ups.
Gas stoves and furnaces use electronic ignition instead of pilot lights.
