Balance Resister Location

[Andyn]

Hi all,

Please, does anyone know the normal location for the Balance Resistor on a 1987 Bedford Bambi. We are experiancing coil over heat / cut out but can't find the resister. We have hot wired the coil and it works perfectly so believe the resister is at fault. Also, if I need a new resister where would I be able to get one?

Help please!!!!

Some of the early ones like my D reg the ballast is integrated into the wiring loom (wasn't a clever idea).

Thanks Noah, I think that one is the Condenser though. Yeah! I've renewed that and all.

Thanks also Duncan. We think ours has been removed before. So I have bought one to screw alongside the coil etc.

Thanks again both.
