12Volt source opininons....

Post by Hemmi06 »

So I have attached my Pertronics to the little dangling wire from the cab in the pictures below (Red wire connected to it). I wanted it to have a full 12 volts power instead of running off the coil with the resistance wire. I have looked at alot of diagrams and see this is for an air conditioner compressor or the throttle solenoid.

I have tested and found the it gets 12 volts at Run and 12 volts at Start. Is there any reason why it should not be a power source for my Pertronics? Opinions please.....

Yes that wire is fine :thup: it is hooked up to the ignition switch the same as the coil wire so will function "off and on" just the same but with the full 12V.
