The coil we have for our TR3 has two connectors. One is labeled with a "1" and the other with a "15". One of these goes to the distributor and one goes to the white wire from the harness. My problem is that I can't determine which goes where. Of course there is no problem with the central output to the distributor - that is obvious, but those side wires have me stumped.
In the wiring diagram, the way the coil is illustrated sort of hints that if I were to buzz from the central output to each of the side connectors in turn, one of them would have a higher resistance that the other and that one would go to the white wire, but I couldn't get either side connector to indicate anything other than an open circuit when tested with the central output plug. Is my coil defective or what? The resistance between the two side connectors was about 1.5 Ohms.
Any advice welcome on this topic.
