Hello everyone, new to the board. Also part of dodgecharger.com but cant seem to get help to this question.
Without turning this into a novel i will just tell ybaou my current problem.
During cranking i am only getting 9.5V to my brown wire at my ballast connector. This is supposed to have 12V or close to it , which is sent to my coil for start up , as well backfed threw ballast to power ecu.
Now if i disconnect power to the starter and just run power to my fuseable link, i get 11.7 V to my brown wire.
With starter connected again i tested brown wire at the back of the ignition switch i get 9.5V at crank. Testing only between battery terminals i get 10.7V during crank.
So why am i getting such a big voltage drop.
The car is 68 Dodge Charger with MP electronic ignition upgrade. Upgraded dual feild alternator and electronic regulator. New engine wiring harness, and coil.
thank you
