Hi, after my 2007 Electra not charging a d ghen not sparking I am chasing an elusive electrical fault ( a fiddle with connectors etc got it charging for a while, so I think it is poor connection rather than parts failure ) but.... alternztor reads .8 on multimeter, so well in range, but pulsar unit 8s showing 360 ....book says 180 to 220. I follow what the unit does, but why would it read so high? They are temporarly unavailable on the on line parts book.
Any thoughts or advice grztefully received as I am easily baffled by lectricks!

Ignitor coil? Tells the ECU when to make sparks. Crank position sensor?

Hi Haggis, thanks for the reply. Any idea why resistance is higher than recommended, or indeed what difference it makes!
