No spark need some input


Recommended Posts

1996 banshee, went riding one day and it was fine and the next time I get on to ride shee wont run. Preformed a spark test and found no spark.

I have tested everything folllowing the manual .

 

kill switch tests it is working properly

key switch test good

 

coil test off the bike I got, primary .5 ohms manual shows should be .28-.38

secondary 5800 ohms should be 4700-7100

(testing plug wire to plug wire)

 

I have been reading a lot of the posts about coil testing and according to everyone elses testings they have been getting around the .5 ohms on the primary side.

The only thing I am not sure of is when testing the secondary wire to wire I have to take the caps off in order to get my reading of the 5800 ohms,

ohter wise it shows nothing. I test the caps by themselfs and cant get a reading. Can you test the caps by ohming them out or does it sound like the caps have a problem?

 

Now the stator tests,

 

Yelllow to black .05 (should be .026-.038)

(Lighting coil resistance)

 

 

white red to white green 117.2 (should be 94-140)

(pick up coil resistance)

 

green to red 18.4 (Should be 13.7-20.5)

(charging coil resistance)

 

 

Everything test good other than the yellow/black wire. Not sure what the lighting coil resistance means or if this is enough to cause a no spark.

 

Any help would appreciated, im kinda stuck on what may be the real issue here as I have a couple of things pointing that they may be the problem. Thanks for the help.
