Have you had it long? Is the kill switch off on the left handlebar?

Ther isn't a cdi box on a rubicon. It does have an ECM that controls everything form spark, shifting, fan motor, meter, etc. It is located on top of the storage box on pre-'05 models and in front of the steering stem on '05-up models.

If you have no spark, first try and replace the spark plug. Even plugs that look ok can be bad, I have seen it before. If that is not it, you will need to get a manual and a peak voltage meter (not a regular volt meter) to diagnose an no spark condition.
