[quote=dvw]Like John said. Splice the dk blue and the brown together from the ignition switch. Neither is reduced voltage.

wrong... brown circuit is allways hot while in RUN, NOT COMING FROM IGN SWITCH but from ballast, so it gets reduced voltage. Thats how the coil is allways hot too
check it and think on it
He can't remove ballast &/or splice brown and blue circuits together using stock system ignition, becauise will overheat the coil [/quote
Check the factory service manual. I've done many. Dark blue wire from the ignition switch is hot in Ignition (key on) but dead in crank. The brown wire from the ignition switch feeds the ballast with 12 volts in crank only (dead in ignition position).The original intention was to bypass the ballast in crank for full ignition feed voltage to the coil in crank only (brown wire), then to ballast voltage (dark blue wire to the positive side of the coil. That's why the brown wire is on the output side of the ballast, it bypasses it.
