IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Always confirm the correct OEM part number, machine model, and serial number before ordering, as Stihl has used several different ignition modules throughout the BR-series production range. OEM 4282 400 1308 supersedes 4282 400 1305 on compatible machines but may not be suitable for earlier blower variants without verifying the serial number.

Common symptoms of a faulty ignition module include a no-spark condition, difficult starting, intermittent engine cut-out, misfiring, or complete engine failure to start. When replacing the ignition module, it is advisable to inspect the flywheel magnets, spark plug, ignition lead, kill switch wiring, and air gap between the flywheel and module to ensure optimum ignition performance and long-term reliability. Professional repair experience consistently shows that genuine OEM ignition modules provide the most reliable performance and correct ignition timing on Stihl professional equipment.
