voltage to trigger points - 74 450 sl
does anyone know for certain the voltage specified for power to the trigger points. it comes out of the ecm on terminal 12 (yellow/black)and is the main power to the trigger points. i've heard it is regulated 5v but want to simulate it properly before buying a new ecm. it's a '74 450 sl

voltage to trigger points
thanks, george - the reason is, i do not have power to my fuel inj. points , at the distributor nor all the way back to the ecm. i do have power from both fuel inj. relays, on the black wires, into the ecm. vehicle currently will not run, i am in the process of a semi-restorartion after (too long) sitting. started and ran a few times til lost power to injectors and i traced it back to the ecm. (yes everything's grounded, yes the points are working) unless i need another power source into the brain that i am not aware of, i'm pretty sure it's burnt (opened it and found several melted spots and a burnt smell). the thing is, i'm not sure how much for an ecm and would like to run this car for a while to see what my other problems may be before shelling out for it. i wanted to give an alternate source to the trigger points of the correct voltage because i believe 12v on a 5v system could certainly damage either the points or the injectors or both. a pin voltage chart would be most enlightening. thanks for your reply.

the power is from the battery. there is an extra wire attached
to the posative post. make sure yer getting power through that wire. otherwise send me yer fax # and i'll get you a circuit or two. george |
