A hand-held ignition voltage tester for detecting voltage on a spark plug wire in an ignition system, such as a distributorless ignition system. The tester includes a housing, positive and negative power cables and a capacitive probe for capacitively coupling to the spark plug wire. The capacitive probe generates a voltage signal which is representative of the voltage on the spark plug wire. A plurality of voltage level indicators are mounted to the housing to form a bar graph, with each indicator corresponding to a selected voltage level. A measurement circuit is coupled to the power cables and the capacitive probe for activating the voltage level indicators in response to the voltage signal.
