DIFFERENT GUY

WITH A VOLTMETER [PREFERRED](OR IN DESPERATION, A 12 VOLT TEST LIGHT MAY CONFIRM THERE IS POWER ANYWAY)

TEST THE POSITIVE SIDE OF YOUR COIL WITH THE KEY "ON"

THEN TEST IT AGAIN, WHILE YOU CRANK IT

ARE YOU GETTING "JUICE" IN BOTH SITUATIONS?

ALTHOUGH THE PICS I'M PROVIDING LOOKS NOTHING LIKE YOURS (IT'S OF MY '77 JEEP CJ-5) IT'S THE SAME SET-UP FOR THE VOLTMETER. DISREGARD THE "JEEP INFO" IN THE EXPLANATIONS.

AUTO PARTS STORES HAVE DIGITAL VOLTMETERS STARTING AT ABOUT $20, HARBOR FREIGHT HAS 'EM FOR ABOUT $5.

KEEP ON FEEDING THE BOTH OF US SOME FEEDBACK!
