Title: ignition coil connection question (HPE VX)
Post by: gjanssen on January 18, 2024, 03:22:16 PM
Hi all,

Before starting my VX, I'll be sure everything is connected properly. 90% of all connections match the electrical drawing scheme, but I'm afraid the scheme is not specific for VX models.
 
On the left side of the engine compartment there is a rubber flap that covers the ignition coil.
There not all electrical cables are properly connected.

Please can anyone take a picture of what it should be like?
There is also a red short cable connected to nowhere  :) 




Regards, Gerrit Janssen
