Connecting the Ignition Control Harness
• Route the Ignition Control Harness to the ignition coil so that its wires do not make contact with
extreme heat, sharp objects or moving devises such as fans, belts and linkages.
• Disconnect ALL wires located on the ignition coil (+) terminal. These include the wires from
the ignition switch/ignition ballast resistor, start/ignition bypass and any other wires normally
connected to the ignition coil (+) terminal. Connect these wires to the RED WIRE. NOTE: The
RED WIRE must get voltage when the ignition switch is in the START and RUN positions.
If you are using a Mallory Electronic Ignition, connect its BROWN WIRE to engine ground
and add its RED WIRE to the Ignition Control Harness RED WIRE. Use Ring Terminal
Connectors to join wires together (See page 2 - Ignition Ballast Resistor / Loom Resistance
Wire and Standard Ignition Bypass).
• Similarly, disconnect ALL wires located on the ignition coil (–) terminal. Connect these wires
to the GREEN WIRE. If you are using a Mallory Electronic Ignition, add its GREEN WIRE
to the Ignition Control Harness GREEN WIRE. Use Ring Terminal Connectors to join
wires together.
• Connect the YELLOW WIRE to the ignition coil (+) terminal. DO NOT allow any wire
except the YELLOW WIRE to make contact with the ignition coil (+) terminal.
• Connect the BLACK WIRE to the ignition coil (–) terminal.
• Go to Step 3, page 9.
RING TERMINAL CONNECTORS:
Furnished with the HYFIRE ® VI Electronic Ignition Controls are two Ring Terminal Connectors
for the convenience of getting a neat installation when the HYFIRE ® VI Electronic Ignition
Control is added to an existing ignition system. These Ring Terminal Connectors allow the
existing ignition system wiring to remain in the area of the ignition coil.
• Move wires onto the stud that is inside the Ring Terminal Connector body.
• Secure these wires to the stud with the nut and washer.
• Install the Ring Terminal Connector cap.
(2c) Wiring Method without adapters for Magnetic Pickup Trigger
Pulses (Non-Computer Type); Magnetic Pickup Distributors or
Crank Trigger Ignition
Connecting to Magnetic Pickup Distributors and Crank Trigger Ignition – Refer to
Figure 17.
• Connect the magnetic pickup (+) wire to the SMALL GREEN WIRE from the HYFIRE ® VI
Electronic Ignition Control.
• Connect the magnetic pickup (–) wire to the SMALL BLACK WIRE from the HYFIRE ® VI
Electronic Ignition Control.
Connecting the Ignition Control Harness:
• Route the Ignition Control Harness to the ignition coil so that its wires do not make contact
with extreme heat, sharp objects or moving devises such as fans, belts and linkages.
• Connect the RED WIRE to the 12-volt wire from the ignition switch. NOTE: The RED
WIRE must get voltage when the ignition switch is in the START and RUN positions. Use
a Ring Terminal Connector to join wires together.
• Connect the YELLOW WIRE to the ignition coil (+) terminal. DO NOT allow any wire
except the YELLOW WIRE to make contact with the ignition coil (+) terminal.
• Connect the BLACK WIRE to the ignition coil (–) terminal.
• DO NOT connect the GREEN WIRE of the Ignition Control Harness to anything. Tape the
end of it to insulate it.
• Go to Step 3, Page 9.
