If EACH terminal has two female connections, the harness is wired for a 4 spade ballast resistor, thus possibly needing a 5 pin ECU.
Wrong, there is no NEED for 5 pins ECU still with dual ballast setup. 4 pins ECUs will work on any 5 pins setup no matter if you have single or dual ballast. 5 pins ECU gets an external extra source from the secondary resistor while the 4 pins gets it internally. Saying this, once you install a 4 pins ECU onto a 5 pins system you can live with the dual ballast without problem, because the existant secondary resistor source simply even still present will go to nowhere via the green traced red wire ( and blue wire jumper between both blue wires on one of the sides ).
You can convert into a single ballast but there is not reason for that aside clean up the view? Dual ballast are available into 0.5 ohms rate for primary resistor if you want performance without change to a single ballast. But if you still want to become into single ballast, just will need to cut the green wire ( doesn't even need to be isolated ), remove the jumper blue wire and replace the dual plug in both sides for a single female plug on both sides, but if you get a 5 pins ECU later ( for whatever reason, will need to reinstall those, because the ignition system won't work propperly. As far I recall the secondary resistor is a control system source, so the 5 pins ECU with a single ballast could work but not propperly. If I'm wrong on this please experts correct me.
Sharing my experience with MP ECUs... I have used for years the Chrome box, and everyone failed, some within 2 years, some other after a year and one of them just last long couple of months. Transistor it was te culprit ( everyone with the ON branded one ). I made the experiment of replace the transistor once and got success, it worked again. However I already was changed to FBO A688 by the time. It failed after 4 or 6 month of use and decided to go with Rev-N-Nator. Also got the Hi-Rev 7500 which it worked for couple of weeks while I was waiting for the Rev-N-Nator ( wasn't released yet but was on the waiting list. I got the first batch, being the number 20 ). Since It was installed, the Hi-Rev-7500 become on my trunk spare.
I also played with an orange MP box while I was waiting for the Rev-N-Nator for a week. It worked perfect. I could notice the Chromed was a crispier box. I ended selling it for a friend who is building his 69 Charger thought.
A Friend of mine got a Hi-Rev7500 and just last long 3 or 4 months.
