Old style solid state. We try to repair as a new one is not available, it was from an old model, 1986, a transistor like component marked 1012 is shorted. Can we modify the wiring and substitute with another module, or even better, can someone tell us what the 1012 is and if there is an NTE replacement?

If the ignition advance is in the distributor ( vacuum and centrifical) then you can us a MSD 6A ignition unit. I have been running one on my 84 500 SEL for several years and it works great. Paul Paul's Auto Electric
