Ford Duraspark Ignition Module Wiring Diagram - Blue Connector Conversion

Wiring diagram of an ignition system showing starter relay, coil, Duraspark module and color-coded wires with voltages.

AI caption · Photo 80 of 96

This document is a hand-drawn/computer-drawn wiring diagram, credited to 'MustangSteve' (http://www.mustangsteve.com) and hosted via WWW.FORD-TRUCKS.COM, showing how to wire a Ford Duraspark ignition module (the version with the blue connector) into a vehicle. It depicts the starter relay with its "S" and "I" terminals, the ignition coil (with + and - terminals), the distributor pickup module, and the Duraspark ignition module. Wire colors are labeled: Brown (12 volts in "start" only, from the starter relay "I" terminal through the firewall), White, Red, Green, Orange, Purple, Black, and Red/Blue (12 volts in "start" only). The diagram notes a Pink resistance wire carrying 6-9 volts, and a 12-volt Red wire 'to plug approx. 4" from ignition switch' with Run and Start switch positions. A legend indicates that gray lines represent existing wires, and colored arrows show current flow paths for START (red arrows) and RUN (green arrows). A reader can learn which Duraspark module wire connects to the coil, distributor, starter relay, and ignition switch circuits, and which circuits are hot only in the "start" position versus "run."
