Anyone out there with experience in bench testing a Pertronix ignition module?
Instructions for bench testing says that after hooking everything up, I should get a voltage reading equivalent to the battery I am hooked up to (12V Volts). Then, placing the ring magnet in proximity to the module and rotating it, the voltage should fluctuate between 12 and 0. However, after hook up, my initial voltage is only reading between 4 and 5 volts. Then, when I do the magnet thing it fluctuates between 12 and 4-5 volts. I tried this test on both a car battery and a 12 Volt power supply and got the same results. I had previously suspected that this module was bad, so I sent it to Pertronix to be tested. They sent it back to me saying it tested out as good. I am in a quandary as to whether or not I have a bad module. Pic below of how I hooked it up per the instructions - Opinions? Thanks.  |
