Anybody know where to get a replacement trigger for a mallory unilite mechanical advance dizzy without too much hassle? Fried mine. Not because it was wired backwards, but because I had the wires from the harness plugged onto the coil backwards. Those black wires with a red and a purple stripe are kinda hard to see. Should have put my glasses on. It's dead, Jim.

I'm out of stock at the moment.
Waiting on the factory for new distributors, and I haven't pushed my supplier to send some modules separately yet.

aircooled.net - I think they also sell a module that will help keep it from getting fried again.

I have one of those modules. Do not trust them. Messed up and cranked it with a charger attached, and fried the module. Had my tach also on the + side of the coil. Think I might have fried that too.

I bought replacement modules from JEGS or Summit Racing: there are two available: I found the cheat one to be less reliable. Always carry a spare.
Also: while the modules either work fail, I once experienced a situation where it worked intermittently. That was worse than a complete failure; couldn't diagnose the problem. Then, when I ready to give up, car would start up and run fine

This is interesting....The Mallory Unilite Module Power Filter Protection System, 29351 has been discontinued by Mallory. Perhaps because it does not work?

I did some isolated testing on mine and it worked. I have a spare....

Well, I am still going to keep mine installed. Hoping that I get my new module from Summit today. Sometimes their stuff shows up next day. Or I could put my old diz with pertronix back in.

My past research showed that you do NOT need a ballast resistor with a bosch blue coil. Would adding one give some additional protection to the Mallory? Would it cause a problem?
