Cranking it with the hall effect switch disconnected will set the code 11. Disconnect the battery positive lead for about 10 minutes and then reconnect. That will erase the codes.

 

Alright will do, tryin it now.

 

Ok I erased the codes and now I just have the 12 code...and still no spark.

 

If you are getting spark but it is weak. The coil is suspect. The ohm reading from the pos to neg on the coil should be 1.34 to 1.55 ohms and from the pos or neg to the large center terminal should be 9.0 to 19.0 K ohms.

 

I tried two different coils at first I did have one that said use with external resistor but I think that was wrong so I got another....to actually see the spark I have to scratch the wire over a ground.

 

II'm Checkin it again tho...ill post my readings.

 

Disconnect the distributor wiring harness at the distributor. The #1 terminal is by the outside alignment tab and across from the flat inside the connector. You should have battery voltage +or- 1 volt at the #1 terminal. Do you?

Use a jumper wire from terminal #2 to #3 in this test. Turn the key to run and hold the coil wire about a 1/4 inch from a good ground. Break and make the connection at #2 or #3 several times with the jumper. You should get a good spark at the coil wire. Do you?

 

iI got 1.8 ohms from pos to neg. and 8.18 ohms from pos to the middle

 

I have 8 volts at terminal 1 and nothing when I connect and disconnect the jumper wire. I have 5 volts on the 2 terminal and other is ground.

 

I appreciate ur patients.....this truck is drivin me crazy.
