newfie22 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Last time I used my banshee it started and ran fine tried to start it today and nothing. Checked for spark first, no spark...I hate electrical problems. swapped in a new set of plugs still nothing, tried other coils that I new worked still nothing tested the stator everything was within specs, and checked all wires nothing broken. So I am guessing the CDI is bad. I don't know anyone else with a banshee so trying my CDI on another bike is not an option only way to know for sure is buy a new one. Anyone have any suggestions on a brand or other things to try? My bike is all stock. I was looking at http://www.electrosport.com/atvs/yamaha/yfz350-banshee-97-06/adjustable-cdi-yamaha-yfm350-banshee-95-06.html if anyone has ever used or know if its junk or not.

wayne_smith97 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 I will agree with vulva oem on coils stators and cdi's. I just happen to trade for an electrosport. If I was going to buy I would buy oem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-banshee171 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Have you tested the key switch? That is if it still has one. I've had those go out before. Did you test the pick up coil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
