Bosch electronic ignition 120-130

Phil S.,
I guess if my 64 had the unused terminal on the OE Armored ignition switch i missed it. Now i must check it out and find out for sure. I thought mine only had 2 terminals.

As for what i said regarding the VClassics installation, did you mean i didn't make sense, or their installation? What i said hardly made sense to me. Sorry. Going by the VClassics diagram, if the connection at the fuse panel is Hot in both Run and Start (which i don't think they are) the diode isn't really doing anything. If the fuse panel connection is Hot in the Run position only, the module would lose it's power during starting if it weren't for the diode providing it with power from the starter connection. That's how it appears to me at least.

To the basics, can we agree that the module and coil (by way of ballast if required) need to be supplied +12v from a source that is Hot with the ignition switch in both the run and start position.
