- Carlos, I can't personally say what the symptoms of a unit failing are but I have heard from rough running to total failure. The only real way that I could see of finding out would be to go back to y

- Tom et al, I've not yet installed my Petronix, but I have used electronic systems on several bikes in the past. When they work, they work. Failure is infrequent but there is no warning--it's just ove

- You guys have scared me so bad with talk of pertronix units failing that I decided to carry a spare. It's not THAT expensive to carry a spare Pertronix. A lot easier to change than putting in points
