Apollo Blazer 9 no longer runs after washing
#1
Was pressure washing the quad as usual ( ATV was not running of course ). ( But with the battery hooked up, pretty stupid of me I know)
Anyways once I was done I fired it up and drove it around for about 10-15 minutes. Let it cool down and put it in the garage for storage.
A day later and now it's not starting, pulled the plug and what do you know, no spark. Pulled the front cover for the wiring and made sure to dry everything off with an air duster to make sure there was nothing shorting. Checked the stator and the readings are perfectly fine. I pulled the killswitch wire on the CDI to see if maybe one of the killswitches was "stuck". Still, nothing, my only two options at this point to my knowledge are replacing the ignition coil and/or the CDI.
Any second opinions on this? I'm just a beginner and have come to those conclusions through a few hours of research and troubleshooting. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Go through the help diagnose stator sticky at the top of this page before replacing anything. This should tell you where the fault lies. Also if, for instance, the earth to the CDI was bad, it blows the CDI, simply putting in a new CDI would result in that blowing too.
