No spark and i can only get 5V at the coil.
Haha. If you guys go straight to wiring to solve problems please don't ever do this for a living. Wether the wiring looked f-d up or not. I never said replace the parts. I said check them out. You always, always go to components first. After making sure everything is getting correct power to them. Which would take all of 2 minutes. Helpful is stopping you from pulling you out of the mess you were in by tearing wiring out. I work on much more than 15 mil worth a crap and have for over 20 years. I actually work for Nasa now. I hope I know what I'm doing... This is assuming you know the part is good after you check it out. You can spend a couple of hours and fix the car the right way or spend a week shooting wires that are just fine.
For the genius you OBVIOUSLY are,you apparently have e reading comprehension
problem,including the posts title.Also,GENIUS,you can explain how checking the volt
reading at a wire of 12 4V is good and yet the device still doesn't work.You've made
sure the ground is good,but nothing.OH,it's called current,and when you apply a
load to it,your 12V disappears and now nothing.In the case of ign. mods.,it need
only drop below 9V to render it inoperative,if you read the posts this was the case
Poor wiring condition and repairs should always be CHECKED and repaired when
they are visually apparent. You seem to be working harder at being an ***,
than actually helping the OP. And for all your hard work I say, job well done!:finga:
