Occasional starting difficulty with Digital HP CD box in my D200

I agree with Sterling, no resistor. My MSD ignition box requires a power wire directly to the battery and resistor bypass. I think yours would require the same.
The power wires are connected directly to the battery. My issue is with the wire that tells the module to turn on, supposed to be connected to 12V ignition on source.
How old is the battery?
About 4 years, it's a Duracell from Batteries Plus so I'd be surprised if it's already going bad but the truck has always been parked outside and until last Spring sat through multiple Colorado winters and summers. I'll check the voltage after it's been sitting a few days.
