banshee_kid350 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Quick question, I have no spark and I have ohmed out the stator wiring with everything checking in spec, checked all wiring in the harness,the key switch,kill switch, and coil. Everything checks good. Does anyone know which wire to test with the test light so I can see if voltage is coming out of the stator? Which wire sends voltage to the cdi? I have checked the yellow wire from the stator for the lights and my test lights works there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert0762 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Check your pick up coil gapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_kid350 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Check your pick up coil gapping. already done that. It's right where it needs to be. I just hate to order a cdi and find out it's the stator. I want to get this thing fixed asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_kid350 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 So the only wire I am getting my test light to work on is the yellow wire from the stator that power the lights. Anyone ever checked voltage from the stator before? Sounded like a good way to norrow it down a little bit more than to just asume it's the cdi. Anyone??

thomas h. Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 also open up you harness my shee drove fine but i cleaned out my harnees (torrs and lighting wire ) i also found rub spots and bare wires so check it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_kid350 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 also open up you harness my shee drove fine but i cleaned out my harnees (torrs and lighting wire ) i also found rub spots and bare wires so check it out I have ohmed all the wires several times hoping for a problems with a wire cause that would be the easy fix of course. I just thought since all the ohming tests check good on the stator, I could just make sure that voltage was coming out of the stator and then I would know it was the CDI. Anyone??? Someone has to have tried it before. Can you get the test light to light up coming from the stator as you kick the bike over?? It works for the lighting system but on nothing else. Anyone ever had a stator ohm out good and still have it be bad?? Just looking for some helpful advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 yes there have been people that have seen stators ohm out perfectly fine and wind up being bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be using a digital voltmeter, the voltage coming out of the stator on the ignition circuit probably won't light up a test light but will show on a digital meter set on a sensative setting.

Okay well I do have readings coming from the stator on the digital voltmeter, as I kick the motor over voltage jumps up on the meter. I think I am going to go order a CDI today and see whats happens. I have tested everything that I can think of. Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to ride so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_kid350 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 CDI ordered on monday....I hope it's gets here for the weekend. I want to ride so bad. Good news I got the CDI put it in and have spark. Put it all back together and went on a long ride. Everything works good. Wish I had gone with my gut feeling earlier and ordered the CDI a lot earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
