407 Coil Failure

[Nick Challacombe]

Barrie,

My 407 wiring diagram clearly shows a ballast relay between the coil and the starter. A white wire when built goes from C1 on the ballast relay, through the fuse and ignition switch to ignition warning light and then the control box. A white and red wire leave the ballast relay from W2 and goes straight to the starter. From the ignition coil a white and yellow wire join with a white wire at a ballast resistance where it leaves as a white/yellow wire onto C2 of the ballast relay
I have a spare Instruction Manual and a spare, Spares Handbook should your pal wish to purchase them.
I do not want to confuse but the wiring diagram I believe is also available on the BOC web site.
A hand book is always a good thing to have. I even have a Brand New Instruction Manual and Spares Handbook, never been in a car but in my archive.
