Hi there BanshedDude55. I'm New to the site So i figure i get my feet wet on this one. Many things you have to look over. especially when your doing electrical on a banshee. Usually we've notice it's always a domino effect when things start going on electrical. Now Guessing you had bought a OEM Factory Stator sense After market Ones 90% of the time are bad in My experience. Or if you have a good Stator rewind guy then that works too. One of the things I've notice in your situation with the 7 kicks and a spark here and there is the igniter is bad in the CDI box. You'll have to replace the CDI to fix the problem. Or.... if your real good open the CDI box and change out the burned out diode in the CDI but.... that's usually *not recommended* unless you really know how to do it. One Quick test if you have a buddy with another bike around the same year they might be compatible and you can then test if that fixes your problem. Now if the Bike fires... then there are other things to trace if then it's miss firing. Such as Coil and your Handle bar off/on switch such as if you flip the bike and got mud in it or busted it. Usually we try to maintain The OEM Stators and OEM CDI's Option #2 for cdi's would be a Dyna Tek. Besides the Dyna I would not trust any after market components for your banshee. Unless you plan on using after market Racing style ignitions such as PVls... and etc.... One other thing you might also attempt. Even thou your saying spark every 7 kicks this don't hurt to try and check also if you have no access to more electrical parts at the time. As i was reading you say Snow? Well that's also a sign of it going to be a little more difficult to start than normal temperature. Might just want to try a little bit of brake or carb cleaner too. Pull your filter off and spray a tad of carb or bake cleaner with the slides wide open. then Give it a couple of kicks with the throttle held with your thumb WOT( wide open throttle).That might fire it off. also if you've been kicking the bike for a while and still has not started you might also want to check it the Belly's of the pipes are full. If so then the bike will not start due to it over flooding it self out and will keep washing out your spark on your plugs. You'll have to pull the head pipes off and see if they are full of Fuel. also which I'm sure you know Compression. as long as it's over 110 it's should start. Besides that i hope it's a start for you and find your problem amongst these test and i hope i was helpful enough Quote
bansheedude55 Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Posted December 18, 2010 ok wicked, thanks alot are you sure thats it? cause theres no loose grounds or open wires, thats gotta be it right? like 100% cause like i said the stators good and i just bought a coil, the run/kill switch is good and a brand new ignition its self.

Then you really have narrowed it down to that. the CDI box should be the Key to your fix. Quote
locogato11283 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Posted December 18, 2010 Make sure the coil is grounded properly. It has two tabs that mount to the frame. Those tabs on the frame need to be bare metal. The coil grounds through its own mounting tabs. This will cause the bike to not spark properly. Quote
bansheedude55 Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Posted December 18, 2010 ok wicked thanks alot im def gunna have to try that, and loco everythings grounded properly. so i think its gotta be the cdi, and wicked i just dont understand one thing... the bike wasnt touched then i was kicking and it lost spark.... haha wtf?

bansheedude55 Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Posted December 18, 2010 should i replace the rear CDI or the the one in the front of the bike across from the coil, witch one do i replace?!!! Quote
Wicked ATV Posted December 18, 2010 Report Posted December 18, 2010 should i replace the rear CDI or the the one in the front of the bike across from the coil, witch one do i replace?!!! You still have the 1 up front? that should be disconnected along with your TORS. You might want to double check the safety is stuck such as if it's sending a signal to the CDI that the Throttle is stuck Wide open. Which would be the large carb tops on stock banshee's with the idles built in them Quote
bansheedude55 Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Posted December 18, 2010 i disconnected the tors and the throttle switch is off... and thats when it was runnin when i did that... so thats takin care of... so the rear CDI is the one i have to replace?! 100% cause im buyin it tonight lol. Quote
Wicked ATV Posted December 19, 2010 Report Posted December 19, 2010 i disconnected the tors and the throttle switch is off... and thats when it was runnin when i did that... so thats takin care of... so the rear CDI is the one i have to replace?! 100% cause im buyin it tonight lol. So then it's narrowed down to the CDI.

Also try this before you spend the money. just posted it on the 7mm fella Also you can try this sometimes works. Take a hose clamp and squeeze the CDI in the middle. Put something round in between. Like a sockets on the top and bottom that will help the contact in the CDI and give you a couple more chances to see that it is. Quote
bansheedude55 Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Posted December 19, 2010 so does it matter how big the sockets are? and make it as tight as possible?? Quote
bansheedude55 Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Posted December 19, 2010 wicked does it matter what size the sockets are? and make the clamp as tight as possible? and then what?connect the cdi like i normally would? then kick it? Quote
