I am using a brand new 1.5ohm coil and it checks out ok at 1.5 ohms (and working fine on points). I have the ballasted ignition wire connected to the +ve side of the coil and the rev counter lead to the -ve. I then connected the red lead of the module to the +ve terminal of the coil and the black lead from the module to the -ve terminal of the coil. When I switch on the ignition (engine not running) I have 12V on both terminals of the coil.
Mart,
Firstly, if you have a 1.5 ohm coil then you will need to run a separate 12v feed from the fuse box to the module. You will be getting ~9.5v when running due to the ballast, and the module needs 12v to run reliably.
For what its worth (and any module issues aside), perhaps buy a 12v coil (3 ohms) and run the same setup you have. This way the module gets a nice 12v when running, and you can remove any of the original wiring from the coil. That is..run a new 12v from the fuse box to the +ve side of the coil, run the red 12v from the module from the +ve side, and then the black from the module to the -ve side of the coil (it says no other cables, but you will need the black and white cable for the rev counter).
These aside...Im afraid they seem to have issues with the K4 kit...I personally think a bad batch as the K7 module and even my old TR6 module worked without any hassles.
