Ignition Ballast Resistor

Series Resistors


Series resistors 0.4 ohms and 0.6 ohms are assembled like the ignition coil resistors used before: A ceramic body encloses the resistance winding, with extending connections.


A sheet metal clamp is placed around ceramic body for fastening. The color of this clamp provides information about the resistance value which is additionally punched in as a number.


Color - Code Number Resistance

blue, anodized - 0.4 0.4 ohms
metallic, anodized - 0.6 0.6 ohms
