Re: Replacement Coil?

Use your meter and look for loss on main battery cables. They can look good but corrode internally. Another area is dimmer switch could be going bad and is actually starting to short out. And the one area You really need to be aware of is the fat red wire. This wire is a factory defect. It is hot with no fuse. It rubs on metal dash then finally shorts and cars have caught on fire. Erics car almost burned in driveway, Joel in Florida caught fire while in the water. Neat thing about it car does not have to be running for this event to take place. I add a fuse at rear junction block. Later Dave the Wave
