Buckaroo Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Two were on top of the top module holding the ignition module on and the blue one was sandwiched in between the two modules. The blue one that was between the modules has no metal contact except the bolt going down the middle. What are these please? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Baker Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Ground wires. Stack them all together under the head of the bolt/screw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Those are ground wires. Put them under the head of the screw at the ignition module. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckaroo Posted April 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 I’ll bring the middle one up top! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckaroo Posted April 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 Oh yes would one benefit from placing rubber isolators between the modules and the mounts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Koerner Posted April 20, 2019 Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 Vibration isolators would provide no benefit. The ignition units are solid state and have no moving parts. Furthermore, they're potted in plastic. The only part subject to vibration failure is the connector, wiring harness and mounting lugs. Just put them back the way they were when you found them.

Tip Posted April 21, 2019 Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 What were your total costs and wait time with Carmo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckaroo Posted April 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 Shipping to them approximately $25 slow 7 to 10 days, $45 medium 7 days and $100 faster 4 to 7 days via US Postal. They email you progress along the way. Three day max for in house repair. They return item UPS 3 day. Cost is $485 for both plus shipping your looking at $550 total. They say they inhance the units with even improved operations over the OEM originals. Example they introduce soft start features that makes the need for the extra wire set up unnecessary. For a little extra they will replace the 6 pin wire and plug set up. They return email questions almost immediately along the way. Just be aware of the time differences. Payments super safe and easy via Pay Pal following there checkout procedure. 5 star experience and the engine seems smoother than before.

Sorry the folks at Carmo manufacture units like these for Ducati etc. They understand these inside and out as they create them. I was told by Carmo the common failure of ignition modules like these is vibration and heat. Of course they do so well in the real world they very seldom have problems.
