INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Do not touch coil output wire (Black) To +12.
DO NOT use Solid or Spiral wound suppression spark plug wires of less
than 800
. Failure to observe these precautions will damage
Ignition & Void the Warranty.

. Remove all components from the ignition cone cam cover area, exposing the
cam shaft end. If you have a stock module leave it mounted in place, but
disconnect it from the coil, tachometer and ignition switch wire.
2. Pull ignition wire through wire hole. Make sure not to run wiring near high
heat areas of the motorcycle, such as the exhaust system. Rock ignition into
cone, with the optical pickup at the top or in the case of a Sportster® everything
is rotated 90° clockwise with optical pickup facing forward and hold down
screws in the vertical position.
Note: It is recommended you leave enough extra wire to allow the module to be
removed from the cam cover for inspection and reprogramming, approximately,
6” minimum.
3. Insert the front and rear lock down screws & tighten.
4. Hook ignition positive (red) wire to the ignition supply, with the kill or ignition
switch wire.
5. Hook the green wire to the tach trigger wire of motorcycle (usually pink) if
used, if not used isolate.
7. Insert the encoder

diagram below).
8. Remove the timing plug and rotate the engine to

next page)
top dead center timing mark to make sure the timing has not
moved.
10. Hook the Black wire to the coil. Do not hook the white wire to positive.
Some Harley-Davidsons use a white wire for positive.
11. Start the Engine.
*See Encoder Installation and Cam end play on back page.
6. Hook the White VOES wire to VOES switch.
Note:
.
It is recommended that you use a VOES switch if one was on your
motorcycle or you should add one if you have a high performance, heavy
bike or have wide engine load variations. If you did not have a VOES
ground the white wire

Spark Plug Wire Guidelines
1. Use only resistor (carbon core) spark plug wires or approved
spiral wound spark plug wires & resistor spark plugs.
3. Failure to observe these precautions may cause ignition
malfunction and could damage the ignition module or coil.
1. Use of coils other than PA coils will result in loss of Multi-
Spark capabilities.
2. Do not touch the Black coil output wire to +12 vdc.
3. A total of 2.8 ohms is the minimum allowable coil
resistance.
4. Do not hook up coils with power (12 vdc) applied to the coils
& ignition module.
Coil Hookup Guidelines
2. Do not use spiral wound suppression of less than 800 Ohms
or more per foot.
