Hello,

I hope I did not confuse you with my previous post as it only applies to the early Volvos with the shielded coil/ignition switch.

The + pole of the 1975 coil should be connected to the output side(~9v) of the ballast resistor.

The 12v + wire from your old coil should be connected to the input side of the ballast resistor.

You should also connect the blue wire from the brain to the input side of the ballast resistor.
