scotts96fast Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 And did you work out why your tests didn't show up this "bad wire"? Rare. 342819[/snapback] yup,we didn't have the right tools and the knowledge....I know the guy at the stealership....I've been riding with him for years....he gave us a break on the $ Quote
scotts96fast Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 how much $ did it set him back to have the stealership do it. 342823[/snapback] $140...(20% off with discount) He just repaired the wire... Quote
fast500#12 Posted March 23, 2005 Author Report Posted March 23, 2005 ok so now i am pretty sure that the green/yellow wire is from the park brake witch. i pulled off the harness today and read it out, all the wires are good. so now i am going to pull the fly wheel back off and recheck the grounds on the back of stator plate and make sure that none of the wires are pintched. and if none of this shit work i am gonna take it to the shop. thanks for all your in put guys.

compose2 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 maybe your spark plug caps aren't pushed on all the way. try pulling one of the caps off and have a buddy of yours hold his thumb over the end of the spark plug wire while you kick it. if he gets shocked, then you have spark. i had a problem where i couldn't see any spark, but my buddy got shocked off of it. sometimes the plug caps just don't make good contact Quote

sheerdr Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 I had an 03 with the same problem. It worked fine then i took it apart and painted it and it quit working. Took it to thepowder coater and it worked when they were done I also found a coil wire kind of loose before. crimped that and it was ok. Quote
fixitrod Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 You still may have a bad stator. I've seen it more than once now. Stator test good and is bad or a new stator goes in that is bad. If you have a good buddy that will let you pull his, try that too before giving your money to the dealship. Quote
BenBB Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 Along with what Fixitrod said, swap out the flywheel just in case. Banchetta had one fail at Coalfest last year and I don't remember the specifics, but it sounds like you have elminated damn near everything else... I kinda skimmed it but looks like the TORS is gone, key switch bypassed, you swapped the coil, CDI, and stator, and checked the wiring for continuity. If you're certain that the wiring harness has continuity, you might also check the black/white wire for resistance to ground (the handlebar kill switch grounds the black/white wire to kill the motor, if it is grounding to the frame somewhere it thinks that switch is "off"). Also I'd double check the ground eyelet terminal where the voltage regulator mounts. Try new plugs (yeah I know duh but had to mention it) and if you can swap in a known working flywheel and see what happens, good luck. Quote

fast500#12 Posted March 24, 2005 Author Report Posted March 24, 2005 (edited) has any one ever gotten a bad stator from ricky stator before? i do have brand new spark plugs propberly gapped, i have checked the cap and they are good. i held my finger directly to the plug wire(metal in side) while i kicked it and got nothing. and if the lights flicker when i kick it, it seams to me that the fly wheel isn't the problem. i don't have any one to swap parts with because all my budies ride four strokes.

J.J. Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 has any one ever gotten a bad stator from ricky stator before? Read through this post about the electrical problems Meat had last year. And then read through this post, to find the final outcome of his problems. Quote
fixitrod Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 In other words meat went through everything you are doing and it was a bad stator from Ricky Stator. I was in the trailer at coal fest when we figured it out. That's why I said to check it. I had a stator (not a ricky stator) that read good and was bad also. Matt on this site has also ran into stators that read good and aren't. Quote
fast500#12 Posted March 25, 2005 Author Report Posted March 25, 2005 (edited) thanks for all your in put guys. we now have spark . i went over every thing meticulusly to day sanded the ground pionts of the stator plate and all the other ground points and reinstalled my harness. i allso checkedthe voltage out put to the ignition from the stator every thing checked out well with in specks. i read out the plug caps and the one to the left cylinder was bad so i replaced it. kicked it over and nothing. then i remembered that i didn't hook up the ground to the harness so i hooked that up. expecting the worst and hopnping for the best i was holding the plug metal in hand and gave her a kick, my arm went numb up to my elbow for a couple of minutes. i have never been so happy to get lit up like a christmas tree. thanks for all your help guys. i've said it befor and i'll say it again you guy rock. the only thing that sucks is i did so much that i don't know what exatly fixed it. oh well just an excuse to up grade is how i see it all.
