• Mount the electronic ignition module in a location that is protected from excessive heat, moisture, and vibration. Ensure adequate airflow around the heatsink.
• Connect the wiring according to the specific circuit diagram provided with your kit. Pay close attention to polarity and ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated.
• After installation, reconnect the battery and perform initial tests as outlined in the kit's specific instructions.

Note: Some users have reported that printed instructions may not be included with the kit. Please refer to the manufacturer's official website or contact their support for detailed assembly and wiring diagrams if needed.

4. Operating Instructions

Once correctly installed, the Whadda Electronic Transistor Ignition System operates automatically as part of your vehicle's engine management. There are no user-adjustable settings or controls for this system during normal operation.

The system's primary function is to provide a precise and powerful spark to the spark plugs, optimizing combustion. You should observe improved engine starting characteristics and a smoother running engine, especially noticeable during acceleration and deceleration, and at varying engine speeds.

5. Maintenance

The Whadda Electronic Transistor Ignition System is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection can help ensure its longevity and optimal performance:

• Visual Inspection: Periodically check the module and its wiring for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
• Cleanliness: Ensure the module, especially the heatsink, remains free of dirt, dust, and debris to allow for proper heat dissipation. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• Environmental Protection: Verify that the mounting location continues to protect the module from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.

Do not attempt to open or repair the module yourself, as this may void any warranty and could damage the unit.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your vehicle's ignition system after installing the Whadda Electronic Transistor Ignition System, consider the following general troubleshooting steps:

• No Start/Rough Idling: Double-check all wiring connections for tightness and correct polarity. Ensure the module is receiving proper 12V DC power.
• Engine Misfires: Verify that spark plugs and ignition wires are in good condition and correctly installed. Ensure the module's ground connection is secure.
• Overheating: Confirm that the module is mounted in a location with adequate ventilation and that the heatsink is not obstructed.

If problems persist, it is advisable to consult a professional automotive technician or contact Whadda customer support for further diagnosis.
