Forum for Astra/ Nova Distrubutor Wiring ?

[Savvi]

SORRY in advance !!

 

I followed a thread about Novas which a few of you have owned in the past.

 

My apprentice blew up his Nova Engine and managed to get a 1993 Astra complete runner.

 

After changing the engine he has found the ignition has changed to electronic with a separate module (4 wires) and dizzy (2 wires) he needs to be able to wire up the electronic module and distrubutor ?

 

Any one have or can point me in the direction that we can find the info ............... he's not been at work for 2 days now and i'd rather spend an hour or so wiring this then losing him for anymore time !!!

 

Cheers Colin

slightly different,and not good pic has its dark outside

 

[Savvi]

That's the coil ?

 

We need to know the wiring from the Dizzy to the ignition module and coil ?

 

I belive it goes back to the Engine Ecu but we don't need to do that.

 

I think its a similar system to the Fiesta and Cvh Escorts ?

[flyingbanana]

yes thats the coil...main live into it then connects to the ignition module...same way the escorts and most old cars are wired up....dont have a ecu on it

[Savvi]

so does the dizzy have a ign. feed, then back to the coil with an earth ?

 

When he cut the wiring out he said a cable went back into the inside of the car, i thought it might be rev counter ?

 

Really need a diagram ?

[flyingbanana]

from the pic above the black lead from the bottom where it connects to the red wire is the main ign in to the coil then the dizzy connects 1 wire to the red and black and the other to the other side....id suspect the 4th wire would have been the rev counter wire

 

i have a wiring diagram here but their are a few different wire diagram for all the models

[Savvi]

I've just noticed yours doesn't seem to have the ign module under the coil ?

This also has 4 wires going into it.

[flyingbanana]

my ign module is on the side of the dizzy

[Savvi]

Different type then !!!

 

Cheers anyway.

[Savvi]

Anyone else ?

 

Getting urgent

 

Thanks
