So I will be replacing the shotty wiring on my newest project. 8n front mount already converted, still has 6v coil. It has a resistor inline to the coil but I have no idea of the rating. How do I measure internal coil resistance? What is the "most common" resistor I'll need?
It doesn't have the original ballast so I will have to locate. I understand I may need anywhere from a 3.6-4.0 ohm resistor, but don't know where to start. In some of JMORs diagrams I notice he uses a terminal block instead of the ballast. Could I up the line resistor and forget the ballast??? Sorry, lots of q's. Thanks for all the help.
