Likely about 4 Amps.

Figure 14.5 Volts with the charging system up and working/the resistance of the coil, likely about 3.5 Ohms = about 4.14 Amps.

With the system operating, it is more of an IMPEDANCE thing than straight resistance, but the current draw will likely be in that 4 Amp neighborhood.

Simply use an ammeter, and MEASURE the draw.
