I'm a new mopar maniac to this site but been a lurker for ever and have wrenched Mopars for over 50 yrs . I got into a discussion with a couple of know- it- alls on another site about how their car will start (with the key in the start position) even when you pull the wire off the ballast resister. I know for sure that when a ballast resister is burnt out, the car will start when the key is in the start position and shut off when the key returns to the run position. They were adamant that theirs cars wouldn't start (start pos.) in any position . I said it will and one guy even went out in his garage and tried his car and came back and said his car didn't make an offer in any key position. I told him something he had other problems . Anyway the two guys , who sounded like they were very knowledgeable about Mopars called me out and said I knew nothing about what I was talking about . I begin to think I was loosing it so I went and checked several of my mopar friends cars which had the single ballast and they all started . Is it time for me to give this stuff up? I was only trying to help another member out who had starting problems. Your opinion please .
