From what diagrams I have. I don't have a pin e. I also have a -2 schematic. I'm guessing that's not going to work.

EST means Electronic spark trigger......code 42 is for low coil driver signalmor current......

EST1Low: (Electronic Spark Trigger) is a current driver signal and normally set if the signal from the SECM is shorted to ground.

Check coil driver wiring and connector for shorts SECM PIN 7(EST1) to COIL PIN A

Verify GND on COIL PIN B Verify GND on COIL PIN C Verify GND on COIL PIN D Verify +12vdc on COIL PIN E

To check the Smart Coil internal circuit disconnect the coil connector and measure the resistance from pin to pin

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
