UPDATE: I know it's been a long, long time. Anyways, I'm back at it and after purchasing an OEM ECU (ICU), and hooking it back up, the old Dart fires right up without issue. I believe the aftermarket junk ICU was a problem, but not THE problem that caused it to shut off when I hit the pothole. I...

Looking at that diagram and comparing it to mine, then it's wired correctly. So now I just need to put the components back together and try firing it up. Yes, I'll need to clear the area of any paint, use the correct washers as previously recommended, same with the larger screws to make sure...

Perfect. So I won't trace. As soon as I get the new ECU in the mail from Halifaxgod, I'll hook it back up and test the voltage measurements as instructed.

I deleted my diagram post because the plug at the ECU was upside down, my bad. So here it is corrected.

I just tried to turn the distributor by hand and it doesn't move.

When I have an hour of down time over the next few days, I'll be mapping out my exact wiring diagram, color coding it, and posting for all to critique. All the wires have been wrapped together so I'll be removing that wrapping to see what the heck is going on and where each one goes. I'll do the...

Here’s a little wire map I made. Plus some additional photos. I’m considering what to do with the four wires at the ballast resistor to bypass them.

Ok. Seems odd that they have the same photo as yours. Do you venmo? or hows that work?

Same photo here... Chrysler 4-Pin Ignition Control Module Made In USA Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler | eBay Is that seller you? And for $9? Seems unreal.

I may take you up on that, but I want to get working parts before I start stringing them together. There's a solid chance based on the advice here and my independent reading/researching that I have **** strung together that doesn't belong there. Ex: if I have electronic ignition and not points...

Are the blue tested ones the Chinese made junk or are these American made? Happy to buy if they'll stand the test of time. Can't send you the one I have now...just ripped it apart to confirm two things: filled with sand and the transistor is an empty shell. Was kinda fun tearing it apart with a...

In looking at your post, looks like you got a few original ECUs for sale. Still have them? I'll buy one.

Good lord...so who wants a free flight to Charleston, SC, a two day hotel stay, and a few hundred bucks to just figure it out while I watch? Ha!

Thank you all for your advice. Check this out....(see photos) the plug going into the ECU has 5 wires, 5 prongs on the plug. The ECU itself has four prongs. Not a rocket scientist here but shouldn’t the ECU have 5 prongs to match 5 wires?

I bought a new cap. It does look a little beat. I don’t know electronics. Is the transistor the round thing with two bolts sticking out of it?
