1.4 sr ignition setup

[millworm]

I'm useless with wiring diagrams so if someone could give me some guidance it'd be great, i got a 1.4 sr ignition set-up for my e16se on 40's but it's off an astra mk2 so not plug and play unfortunately. it does have the positive battery cable and the big multi plug still attached so I if cold find out what they all do then I could wire it in like that i guess. any help appreciated rep will be given! cheers

what have you got on that ?

black, brown and green coming out of the multiplug, and another black and green coming out the coil plug ?

Think so mate but would have to get a pic for you tomorrow

[jimbob-mcgrew]

ok cool, stick a pic up tomorrow.

have you pre-sorted the 1.0 coil wire for it already ?

Thats what i've got to deal with haha, just need an idea of what is what so i know what i got to do

[jimbob-mcgrew]

lol, omg that looks confusing...

ok, to start with, the big old beast, 7 pin plug goes to the coil module
the 2 wire connector (1 green, 1 black) goes to (-) negative on the coil
the other 2 wire connector (1 blue/black, 1 yellow/black) goes to the dizzy
the brown wire coming out of the 7 pin module goes to a good solid earth/ground
the 7 pin module black links to the negative coil black (and then both given a switched live)
the 7 pin module green links to the negative coil green (and then both sent to rev gauge green wire)

... i think thats about right .. its bloody spaghetti junction down there lol

[jimbob-mcgrew]

to be fair, from what i can see in the pics, it looks good to go (the coil side atleast) :thumb:

Cheers, gonna plumb it in tomorrow and see where i stand and what has to be spliced into the factory loom

[jimbob-mcgrew]

the big fat chunky red one, that looks like a medi-eval murder weapon, goes to the battery :)

[millworm]

So as far as the coil is concerned there is just a switch live and an earth no permeant live?

[jimbob-mcgrew]

yeah, only switched live to the black wire.

if put on a permanent live, they burn themselves out after an extended period of time :thumb:

Cheers man, just wanted to be sure. just got to replace the factory switched live and were in business :)
