69 dart electronic ignition
a friend of mine has a 69 dart, with dual points and it just quit running one day, so he decided to change over to electronic ignition, a summit product that looks like the mopar orange box. Any out there own a 69 dart? who possibly had change over? or someone who has on another car similar?
we have wired it like the directions, made sure the rotor is pointing the right direction, new coil, check ballast, everything, can't get a spark at all, need some help?? please

hi tish
welcome to the forums
1st off throw that blue box in the trash or better yet have a semi truck run it over im assuming thats what came in the kit it is also what advance auto offers ,..... it is junk [ thats what i think ] and order the orange or chrome one , recheck your wiring i'll be able to take some pics of my wiring later on today as my 70 dart is in the shop getting the alignment done

okay tish cant get ya a pic but the wiring harness coming off the brain box the black with gray tracer and the brown with a white tracer is going to the dist the blue/yellow tracer is going to the ballast box[white ceramic box ] then the last one should be heading to the coil not sure on the color your ohm resistance on the ballast should be around .5 ohms using stock set up both of your blue wires going to it splice the other blue with yellow tracer in with that thats how mine is set up you dont need to use the 4 pin ballast unless you want a backup besides the one in the glove box
i hope this helps if not i'll fire up the camera and take some shots
