MALLORY IGNITION

Connecting the Ignition Control Harness:

• Route the Ignition Control Harness to the ignition coil so

that its wires do not make contact with extreme heat,

sharp objects or moving devices such as fans, belts and

linkages.

• Connect the RED WIRE to the terminal on the ignition

ballast resistor that previously had the DARK GREEN/RED

WIRE connected to it (or to a 12-volt wire from the ignition

switch). NOTE: The RED WIRE must get voltage when the

ignition switch is in the START and RUN positions.

• Connect the YELLOW WIRE to the ignition coil (+)

terminal. DO NOT allow any wire except the YELLOW

WIRE to make contact with the ignition coil (+) terminal.

• Connect the BLACK WIRE to the ignition coil (–) terminal.

• DO NOT connect the GREEN WIRE of the Ignition Control

Harness to anything. Tape the end of it to insulate it.

• Go to Step 3, page 11.

Ignitions (three wire/red, brown, green); OEM electronic

ignition amplifiers.

Refer to: Figure 13 for Mallory UNILITE® Distributors, Magnetic

Breakerless Distributors or Electronic Advance Distributors (three

wire/red, brown, green); Figure 14 for OEM electronic ignition

amplifiers

Connecting the Ignition Control Harness

• Route the Ignition Control Harness to the ignition coil so

that its wires do not make contact with extreme heat,

sharp objects or moving devises such as fans, belts and

linkages.

• Disconnect ALL wires located on the ignition coil (+)

terminal. These include the wires from the ignition

switch/ignition ballast resistor, start/ignition bypass and

any other wires normally connected to the ignition coil (+)

terminal. Connect these wires to the RED WIRE. NOTE:

The RED WIRE must get voltage when the ignition switch

is in the START and RUN positions. If you are using a

Mallory Electronic Ignition, connect its BROWN WIRE to

engine ground and add its RED WIRE to the Ignition

Control Harness RED WIRE. Use Ring Terminal

Connectors to join wires together (See page 2 - Ignition

Ballast Resistor / Loom Resistance Wire and Standard

Ignition Bypass).

• Similarly, disconnect ALL wires located on the ignition coil

(–) terminal. Connect these wires to the GREEN WIRE. If

you are using a Mallory Electronic Ignition, add its GREEN

WIRE to the Ignition Control Harness GREEN WIRE. Use

Ring Terminal Connectors to join wires together.

• Connect the YELLOW WIRE to the ignition coil (+)

terminal. DO NOT allow any wire except the YELLOW

WIRE to make contact with the ignition coil (+) terminal.

• Connect the BLACK WIRE to the ignition coil (–) terminal.

• Go to Step 3, page 11.

For coil-in-cap distributors only

Refer to Figure 10 while performing the following steps.

• Connect the BAT PLUG/wire to the RED WIRE.

• Crimp the YELLOW WIRE to the YELLOW WIRE of the

Adapter Part No. 29043 3-pin connector.

• Crimp the BLACK WIRE to the BROWN WIRE of the

Adapter Part No. 29043 3-pin connector.

• Plug the Adapter Part No. 29043 3-pin connector into the

distributor cap.

• Note: DO NOT connect the GREEN WIRE of the Ignition

Control Harness to anything. Tape the end of it to insulate

it.

• Go to Step 3, page 11.

For external coil only

Refer to Figure 11 while performing the following steps.

(Replace the words “spade receptacle terminal” with “ring termi-

nal” when aftermarket coils with post type terminals are used.)

• Disconnect the BAT wire from the ignition coil BAT/(+)

terminal. Connect the BAT wire to the RED WIRE.

• Disconnect the tachometer wire from the ignition coil

TACH/(–) terminal.

• Crimp a spade receptacle terminal on the Ignition Control

Harness YELLOW WIRE. Connect the YELLOW WIRE to

the ignition coil BAT/(+) terminal. DO NOT allow any wire

except the YELLOW WIRE to make contact with the

ignition coil BAT/(+) terminal.

• Crimp a spade receptacle terminal on the Ignition Control

Harness BLACK WIRE. Connect the BLACK WIRE to the

ignition coil BAT/(–) terminal.

• Discard the adapter plug with the yellow and brown wires

from the Adapter PART NO. 29043. It is not used on

external ignition coil HEI systems.

• Note: DO NOT connect the GREEN WIRE of the Ignition

Control Harness to anything. Tape the end of it to insulate

it.

• Go to Step 3, page 11.

Connecting to Mopar/Chrysler Electronic Systems (non-computer

type) using Harness PART NO. 29040 for OEM magnetic pickup

Refer to Figure 12 while performing the following steps.

• Disconnect all connectors at the ignition module, ignition

coil and distributor. Remove the ignition module. Take

notice of a DARK GREEN/RED WIRE connected to the

ignition ballast resistor. Remove the distributor and coil

harnesses.

Connecting the Harness PART NO. 29040:

• Connect the HYFIRE® 6.6 Electronic Ignition Control’s

SMALL GREEN WIRE to the Harness RED WIRE.

• Connect the HYFIRE® 6.6 Electronic Ignition Control’s

SMALL BLACK WIRE to the Harness BLACK WIRE.

• Connect the mating plug of the Harness to the distributor

plug.
