Question Can the OBD module be wrong?

Hello.

The car is 93' 300E 2.8 California version with 83,000 miles. I'm the second owner.

I've had pretty bad engine misfire since yesterday, so I checked the code.

Here below are the codes I got:

Onboard LED: None
Pin 8 : 23
Pin 14: 11

Then I checked the ignition coils because I suspected them. Fortunately, I was right. #1 ignition coil seemed bad.

Here are the resistance values:

#1 Primary 0.7 Ohm, Secondary 0.575 MOhm (not K)
#2 Primary 0.7 Ohm, Secondary 6.8 KOhm
#3 Primary 0.7 Ohm, Secondary 6.8 KOhm

Now, I have a question. The OBD module told me #2 ignition coil was wrong, but I got a different result.

Can anybody explain?
