efp0wa Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Hey guys When I removed the coil from my L300 that has a 4G63 SOHC I did write down which wire goes where but i didnt write something down correctly and it isn't making sense. Can someone help me please:: I have from Dizzy: Blue wire Black/ white stripe From Loom: Black/ red stripe White/ black stripe Black/ white stripe Can someone please tell me which wire goes where, as my diagram is wrong This may be the same as other Mitsi vehicles taht use 4g63 sohcs.

fuel Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Judging from these two pics To the positive terminal on the coil should be: Black wire with white stripe from the Distributor (positive feed to dizzy) Black wire with white stripe from the body loom (positive feed from battery/ To the negative terminal on the coil should be: Blue wire from the Distributor White wire with black stripe (thin wire) from the body loom Unsure where the Black wire with red stripe should go as I can't clearly see it in my pics. Remember you should have a ballast resister too, perhaps Black with red stripe is the ballast resister bypass power feed for when the engine is cranking. Quote
efp0wa Posted December 20, 2009 Author Posted December 20, 2009 Thanks fuel. Originally I wrote down: Ballast- 1 side: Black/white from Loom Black/white from Dizzy 2nd Side: Black with black plug from loom Coil- Negative: Black/ white from Loom Blue from Dizzy Positive: Black from ballast. (which now makes no sense to me....) Quote
efp0wa Posted December 20, 2009 Author Posted December 20, 2009 Ok got her running!! Running mint, timing must be all good As for the Black wire with red stripe from the loom I'm still not sure. I got it running without a ballast, i'm actually lost as to what wires should be running from ballast to wherever so some more help would be good. 1 Quote
fuel Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 get a multimeter and find which wire has constant power on ignition, that should go to the ballast and then the other end of the ballast should go to the coil. then find the wire which gets power only when the starter motor is being triggered, this should go direct to the positive side of the coil.
