    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

My 78 1000 came with this igntion.Great but when I took the harness off I didn't take note of what wire went where.PO didn't help as the harress looked hacked up.

So here are the ends of the Martek wires.
And where I think they plug in to.Specificly the white and black with yellow tracer.But which one goes whwere?

So then there is this stff.OK with the 2 orange with white but why the second white?Assume the longer black Martek wire plugs into the black wire here or am I wrong?

This just is not helping.Thinking the black with yellow plugs into this one.
Hoping someone can help me with this.
 
Just so happens that I have a Martek 440S in the box with factory instructions. Find the white wire and black wire that were connected to the OEM breaker plate (it was in a rubber sheath). The Martek red plugs into the white, and yellow into black. The long black wire from the Martek 440 goes to the orange wire to the turn signal relay (according to directions) I take it that is the power for the module.The Gasket for the Ignition cover supplied is about 1/8 in. thick, so the stock gasket won't work without rubbing the module with the cover.
