Had a problem with my 7.0 BCG over the weekend (would only run if the Start button was held down).
Culprit wound up being the ballast resistor on the coil. The little resistor "coil" was rusted and had a break in it so no flow through it.
Does anyone know if there is a replacement for this resistor? Westerbeke only sells it with the complete coil pack for $200 or so. I have found many ballast resistors, mostly for under $20.
Anyone know what the ohm range would be?
Thanks,
