Does anybody have an electrical schematic for wiring the EDIS-4 to the
Renesis individual coils? I burned out two of them with my wiring.

The Renesis individual coils are five volt input only.
They have solid state low side switches inside them.
They are designed to be activated by a 5 volt positive going
pulse from a computer. The same as the GM LS1 coils.

The Ford EDIS system is designed to pull the bottom of
an old fashioned stand alone coil to ground while the
top of the coil is connected to 12 Volts. Same as a set
of points but it is all done with a transistor. It is called
low side switching.


"Compared to a low-side load switch, a high-side switch sources
current to the load, while the low-side type connects or disconnects
the load to ground, and therefore sinks current from the load."


In effect you are grounding the input to the RX8 coil.

I don't think it likes that :)
