Good morning!

Well, last night i went to do some work on the Rx.
Wanted to swop the polarity of the Pickup`s on my new DLIDFIS ignition.

Turned on the ignition,and only the fuelpump,and warning lights came on.

So i went and checked the fuse box,for a blown fuse,all of them a-ok.

Checked the fuseable links in the enginebay,nope,all of them working just fine.

Checked for voltage at any off the coils,nothing,all of them dead as a doornail!

Checked for power at the ignitors,nothing as well.

So somehow,i managed to screw up my igntion system.

Does anyone have any tips on how i can fix it?Is there a relay that turns on the ignition system?

I`am sitting with a wiring diagram,and i feel like i`am going to se it on fire.

Please help

Thanks for reading!

Good morning to you too. Did you do anything to the wiring *before* all this happened? I mean, aside from the DLIDFIS?

 

Nothing serious !

I removed the leading wiring from the pickup to the coil.

i used the stock wires,that switches on the coils,to switch on the leading coils,and added a jumper wire,to the trailing coil.

The tach signal was put on the - of the 2nd rotor leading coil.

Should i draw up a diagram of how i did it?

 

Hmm, so everything comes on except for the ignitors and coils? It might be a bad terminal in your ignition switch or something. If you can't track down the bad wire, I'd say to use a relay and feed it with a different lead.

Go ahead and draw up a diagram.

 

Ok,thats waht i thought as well!

Opinionid the 3 coils,and aftermarket ignitors drwa to much current from the igntion contact?

Ok,here is my diagram.Please excuse how horrible it looks(3 year old could do better!)

 

Your diagram looks correct. Again, I think the feed wire wasn't quite up to the task. Have you tried hotwiring everything to the battery? It would be a good way to see if the ignitors and coils are still good.

You need to use a relay! I'm probably going to pick up a relay for my '76 CD Cosmo today.

 

Thanks Jeff!

I started wiring up 2 relays last night.
Havent quite finsihed it yet.

I`ll tell everyone how it ends when it have finished wiring it.
