BOLT Posted October 30, 2005 Report Posted October 30, 2005 Rode to the Top of Blow Sand with lights on... Turned off Bike... Sat for 20 minutes watching folks... Turned on key... kicked it over... No Spark... Pushed it off top of hill... slipped into second gear... motor spun... lights came on no problem... but still ZERO spark...? What quit on me..? Quote
dadude Posted October 30, 2005 Report Posted October 30, 2005 (edited) Might wanna grab the ol ohm meter with me and do some electrical diagnosing cause mine just died after two days of getting to use it. Maybe the banshees are doing it in honor of halloween. wooo spooky. joking but here's the electical FAQ with them ohm numbers. http://www.dfn.com/benkaren/elecfaq.html Mine wont spark either no matter how hard I kick it, lol.. waiting for a few new parts that hopefully fixes the prob-lemo.

2003LimitedBanshee Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 You could possibly be looking at a coil, but I might run the resistance numbers on the stator. The lighting and ignition windings of the stator are separate, so it is possible to have lights, but no spark. Quote
BOLT Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Posted November 3, 2005 I'm guessing it's the stator... but I'll drag out the ohm metter and get to it... Thanks guys... Quote
dadude Posted November 10, 2005 Report Posted November 10, 2005 hey bolt, any update on this? What was broke? i'm interested to know. my shee is doing the same exact thing btw. I bought it back two weeks ago stock and got to ride it fine for two days about then blammo no spark and my lights fire also. Anyways I had a cold the past two days and it's finally easing up. I finally got my parts(used working stator and ignition coil) in yesterday but now i'm waiting on my flywheel puller. Then hopefully i'll be cruising. Anyways let me know how it goes. Quote
BOLT Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Posted November 10, 2005 I wish I had it fixed... Bought a Toy Hauler... Been setting it up... Went away for several days... Started a motor project for my truck today... LOLOLOLOL... Need to build a gate in the fence to park the Toy Hauler... and dig a trench for the at home dump station my plumber buddy is going to install... Whew... Poor little Banshee is on the bottom of the list... Been riding my XR... Quote
dadude Posted November 10, 2005 Report Posted November 10, 2005 hah I hear yah.. it's always something lol. Anyways was just wondering. I'll post back here also after I test each of mine i'm gonna do the ignition coil for kicks but i'm pretty sure it's the ol stator. even the ohm meter got nothing on the red and green test. anyways good luck my shee is all i have to ride. Atleast you have others haha Quote
