Good idea disconnecting the coil.
Let’s see what that does.
Let’s see what that does.
Hot ballast resistor and smokin. no start at all when turning key
- Thread starter bbmopars
- Start date

I will look into that and see
You can use a test light and connect to ground at the start relay and stick the probe into the small yellow wire at the relay and hit the key, light should glow...........
I'll do that and see if it does,let you know

Im an electrical IDIOT, so I'll let more knowledgable chime in. I think that is a WRONG diagram.
It is. It has to do with the yellow wire if I remember. I THINK the diagram is good IF you're wiring something from scratch, just not for something already existing. I THINK. But don't take that to the bank. I'm an electrical idiot, too.
Whats the right diagram then to look at?

What about this one? I don't this this is good either. Not color coded and doesn't show both Ign. 1 and Ign. 2. I'm still looking. Thought I had a good one.
The first diagram may have a problem back feeding, should be a single brown wire from the ignition switch to the ballast. Which would be on the coil side of the ballast, 12 volts only while the car is in the start position only.

This is a dual ballast diagram. The only difference is the 5th pin is a ground which a 4 pin doesn't use. so just wire the 4 pin to single ballast and eliminate where I drew the arrow. I think this is correct. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes that is much better. ^^^^^

Not sure sorry. Ive said forever whether it's **** stained sellers , or BAD/WRONG info, there should be a forum dedicated to that.
Sorry, not much help, looks like the guys are on it and will get you steered in right direction.

Well, as much as we've all suggested things in the past that have fallen on deaf ears, good luck with THAT!
