Newtronic Electronic Ignition Wiring

#1 Post by calderfisher »

Hi All,
In my quest to get MUG running properly I'm trying out the electronic ignition again.
Unfortunately when I removed the electronic eye wires from the control box I didn't mark them :oops: .
So I'm left with this:

Does anyone know what wire goes where????

Thanks for that, but I've already got they wires connected up.
The wires I'm unsure of come from the distributor module and go to the spade terminals on the control box.
I think there may have been some kind of terminal block encasing these wires that I had to remove to get the wire through a bulkhead grommet, I've since lost the block......
