    AMC 304 Dizzy Swap Prestolite to MSD RTR wiring help needed

    I really didnt want to swap out the dizzy till I was ready to rewire the whole rig. But I think the module is failing, and I have the dizzy sitting here already.

    MSD non HEI Billet RTR unit. 3 wires, Positive coil, negative coil, Ground.

    It wont start. This is what i presume is the problem...The modules are still in place, a Red w/White wire is the ignition ON to the coil Positive. Does this wire lose power in the start position? thus killing voltage when trying to start? I didnt have anyone to turn the key while I checked the meter to verify this. If this is the case, I will just need to find the wire that is powered when the ignition is in start position?

    OOOR, disconnect both modules, then find the ignition wires that are hot in both positions high in the harness and hook them to the coil?

    got it, somehow, the damn terminals to the dizzy were not making contact. No power at the MSD. Interesting how a terminal soldered on to wire, and nutted down on a post has no conductivity. New copper terminals and all good to go.
