Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Electronic Module
The module contains seven color coded wires (see Fig 1). The module receives power from ignition switch through red wire while engine is running and through white wire while engine is cranking. The orange and purple wires transmit signals from distributor while green wire receives primary ignition current from coil which is then transmitted to ground at distributor through black wire. System protection is provided through blue wire, which is a fusible link. The electronic module cannot be repaired.
