Red face '89 Civic Installing new Electronic Ignition Module

I have an '89 Honda Civic. I am replacing the electric Ignition Module inside the distributor cap. It was removed by the previous owner, so I don't know how the wiring is suppose to be reconnected. I have 4 wires: Yellow, 2 yellow/black, 1 green. I can't find in my repair manual how to reconnect the wires. Can anyone help me please?

Re: '89 Civic Installing new Electronic Ignition Module

The wires should naturally lay darn close to where they were originally installed.


And you need to clean your spectacles and clean the wires off. The colors and order SHOULD be:

A white
B blk/yel
C wht/blu
D blue
