Ballast Resistor
A ballast resistor is an electrical component commonly used in automotive ignition systems. It is designed to regulate the voltage that reaches the ignition coil, ensuring consistent and reliable performance. The ballast resistor works by reducing the voltage supplied to the coil during normal engine operation, preventing overheating and prolonging the life of the ignition system.

Selecting the correct ballast resistor is important to maintain the proper voltage regulation in your ignition system. The specific resistance value of the ballast resistor is a critical factor to consider. Different ignition systems may require different resistance values, and it is essential to consult the manufacturer's specifications or refer to a reputable automotive resource to determine the correct resistance value for your specific application.
