When they open. Now if you want the answer it is when the 12 volts or six volts, or the rotor in the magneto, what ever. The electrical primary field collapses. This induces the field in the secondary coil that produces the HV Spark. When the points close the primary builds up very quickly, and it also charges the capacitor.
