Warning:
Make sure not to reverse the RED and BLACK Ignition wires as this is likely to destroy the ignition module and void the warranty. Returned units are tested to identify the cause of failure.
Using a coil with too little primary resistance can cause the ignition module to overheat and fail also voiding the warranty. Please contact a member of our team if you are unsure of any details. All ignition products supplied by A-Series Spares come with a 2 year manufacturers warranty.
