rotor arm + resitor

pug 205 1.6 gti

A mechanic has told me that the resistor on the rotor arm under the distributor cap may be malfunctioning. I can't find any reference to a resistor in the workshop manual. Am I being taken for a ride?

pug has electronic ignition

thanks

sp.

ps could any such malfunction account for backfiring and pops under the bonnet?
