I thought the Coil input was coming from the CDI- so with the CDI off, I measured the black/white to green. Sorry if this is wrong.

I will go look the bike over closer and see what I can find. The measurement was truly .005 I was surprised it was reading out that far as well, but it was. It is a INNOVA 3320

Lynn,

The ignition output wire resistance (through the coil to ground) that was measuring 00.6-00.7 Ohm with the key on but not cranking, I obtained this at the same location (black/white to green). Again, sorry if this is the wrong location. Looking at the diagram- I thought this was the ignition output and coil input.

Also, I may be able to borrow an oscilloscope from a friend. He lives a few hours away- so it may take a bit to get it.

Thanks

Looking at the diagram it is indeed a black/white wire driving the coil. My bad...

Normally Black/white is a kill switch wire, but on your quad wiring wiring diagram it clearly is not. Your are measuring the right place.

Measuring zero volts at the coil input suggest that the CDI is not getting triggered. This is a very strange problem.

If you do manage to get an oscilloscope I do have waveforms for the CDI inputs and outputs that I can post.

Hey Lynn, following this post you stated you could post waveforms for cdi's , please post them or pm to me
thanks

Yes, let me do that tomorrow (It's past 11PM and I haven't had dinner yet). I'll post them under a new thread with a more relavent title in this forum section.

Remind if if I forget! Life has been very busy for me of late...

Lynn, You definately were right from the begining. It was going to be a while before I could get the oscilloscope. Since everything pointed toward the stator, I just purchased a new one and it is sparking like it should. I probably would have tried this earlier, but I thought it would be a lot harder to actually change out.


Thanks!

I'm glad it is working for you!
