N reg 440 Ignition
HI, we have a fault with the ignition system that "cooks" ignition coils. Is there a wiring diagram available to help in our diagnosis please.
A new coil has been fitted and lasts an hour or so while getting very hot and burns out. It has three terminals so presume a ballast resistor is lurking somewhere? Anyone got any pointers please. Thanks Steve |

Go to the home page of the 480 club europe and go to the downloads section you will find what you need there oh assuming its not a turbo you should have a capacitor attached .

It may well be a fault of the engine management control . I havent ever seen a ballast resistor on any 480 I have worked on and thats been a fair few!
