AK47KID Posted January 23, 2016 Report Posted January 23, 2016 I've got no spark at all. I ground the spark plugs to the engine head and nothing. Haven't really did anything as I'm not familiar with the wiring in a banshee. Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk Quote
Jogon30 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Posted January 23, 2016 Check you coil...and stator and pick up Quote
AK47KID Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) Check you coil...and stator and pick upHow would I go to check the igniting coil? And pick up coil and stator. I've never had to check them on other quads Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk Edited January 23, 2016 by AK47KID Quote

AK47KID Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Posted January 23, 2016 im gunna have to buy those. I have power to the lights but nothing else Quote
AK47KID Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Posted January 23, 2016 where is the pick up coil? Quote
Larry's Shee Posted January 23, 2016 Report Posted January 23, 2016 Boy, you've left yourself open for a lot of comebacks, lol. Either buy a Clymers Repair Manual or find the download on here. Could be bad kill or key switch. Have you even checked for broken wires in harness? Did this run and stop? Or is it new to you POS ? BTW, welcome to BHQ. Grow some thick skin, you're going to need it, lol. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted January 23, 2016 Report Posted January 23, 2016 Trouble shooting list -Flywheel (no rattles good magnetically) -Flywheel key ( not sheared off or not advanced key with extra timing on plate) -Stator (ohmed and tried another good working stator of known working bike?) -Pick up and pick up gap (don't be afraid to file nubs) -Wiring harness Un wrapped and gone through -Connectors cleaned and greased -New spark plugs -Clipped plug wire ends where boots thread in -New plug boots if old ones don't ohm out. -Ohmed and tried known coil -Coil surface grounded and cleaned w/ dielectric -Harness ground cleaned up -Tors/park brake/key/tps/ all deleted properly -Disconnected the tether switch -Test kill switch -Swap coil -Swap CDI -Swap stator Random stuff from electrical FAQ: At the CDI harness side connector, check for continuity between the red/black wire and the black wire. You should have continuity with the key on. (or bypassed) If no continuity, there's your problem. If that checks, check between the black/white wire and the black wire. That's your kill switch. It should be open circuit for it to run. You got it. We noted and have posted many times, the typo that Clymer did in their manuals. Primary is from blade connector to blade connector and secondary is from plug wire to plug wire. Remember to remove the plug caps and test separately. They are known for failures . Remember also to unclip the wires completely from the coil and test "ONLY" the coil when you get a bad reading. Wires shit out commonly, the coil itself rarely fails. your ignition has 4 wires. cut the ignition off. the black with white stripe and red with brown stripe need to be soldered . then solder the red and brown wires so you then have 2 wires. wrap them up in electrical tape (NOT TOUCHING) then your ignition will be eliminated. the coil grounds where it mounts, and there is one on the back of the timing plate- it's the wire clamp. that is the whole engine ground. there is also one by the voltage regulator.

sleeper06 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Posted January 23, 2016 a service manual should be mandatory for all bhq er newbies. There is so much to check with a no spark situation but you need tools or spare parts Quote
AK47KID Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Posted January 27, 2016 The ignition switch/dash thingy was removed along with the tors before it was bought Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk Quote
AK47KID Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Posted January 27, 2016 I don't know if this helps. Probably won't... But I was ridding the shee and fishtailed/drifted and it bogged out and died. Hasn't started since. So wouldn't that eliminate the stator? Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk Quote
AK47KID Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Posted January 27, 2016 I will check the wires Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk Quote
