    No spark, sudden failure. Electronic ignition '65 A-100

    Problem solved-thanks guys! I had a friend help troubleshoot. We found that we could get a spark after cleaning up everything and then we removed the plugs which had been fouled quite a bit during the recent trouble shooting electrical and some bad gas. After a clean up the slant six baby...

    No spark, sudden failure. Electronic ignition '65 A-100

    I do get a reading of between 150-900 ohms with ignition off. I would like to find this second ignition wire? I can easily access the key ignition and find the start on wire at that position, but where does it go from there?

    I have 9v volts to the coil at key on and 9v at the end of the wire to the dist, the coil is brand new. 1) Where does the second ignition wire come from or go to to spark? I have a electronic 5 nom ignition module? 2) When you say check OHM at the dist two wire connector, do you mean from...

    No spark, sudden failure. Electronic ignition '65 A-100

    It does seem most likely the ignition switch wire is faulty. I'd like to check this and follow this from the ignition to its destination though its a bit hard to follow and check on my own. I'll try to find a helper. I assume it starts at the key start position? Then where does the 12v...

    No spark, sudden failure. Electronic ignition '65 A-100

    I replaced the electronic ignition module, ballast and coil with no change. Motor turns over but no spark to plugs. I will test the resistance to the distributor. Coil has 9v coming to it. I would like to buy a new distributor cap and a cable from the coil to the distributor...

    I am pretty convinced it's not the ballast as I replace it every year and it's newish. Normally a bad ballast would occur when its hot and then start when its cold at least once before it failed completly, though I will grab one as well and check it out. Reporting back soon. Thanks everyone

    Yeah I got pulled over for speeding the other day. I had to explain, really I was going about 30mph, it took a while, but when I quoted the gears, horsepower and so forth I finally convinced them I wasn't going fast, only that it sounds and looks fast. Haha.

    Trigger wire? How can I check or research this? I am concerned that it is something as simple as that... I checked the electronic ignition and I find one lead is hot when the key is on.

    Cuda, Cool, I am out in the boondocks in Baja now and it's pretty dusty and greasy, I was using an old voltmeter with a bad battery so I read about 9v on the positive side but assumed it was a bad voltmeter connection! Good. I have a external resistor, the simple white box spring type...

    Thanks Cuda, okay I have pulled and clean the cable ends, no broken cables. I get no consistent arc when turning over only when the key clicks on and off? The Distributor is turning properly, there is power to the coil and to the ignition. At the moment I am planning to go for a coil, though...

    Hello Mopar Enthusiasts. I drive a Dodge 1965/66 Slant 6 170cu A-100 with electronic ignition (ignition model Chrysler EX 65 4/5 NOM Ignicio Electronico) Suddenly while the vehicle had been running perfectly, I stopped and it no longer starts, no spark. I am trouble-shooting it back to the...
