Does anyone know why my sons eton 90 would not be firing. I have check everything I know to check ( which is limited). It was running fine and he bumped into a tree with the front bar and it quit and has not ran since. I put in a new spark plug and checked all the wiring. Nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A bump on a tree may indicate disconnected wire. I guess I'd check all the connections. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I have check every wire and connection. Do you know if a bumb could mess up the coil??

 

.

Check every kill switch connection, check ever key connection, check every Tether switch connection.

If still NO spark, pull the Stator output wires and use a digial ohms meter and check for approx A=B+C. If you do NOT get a zero (or close to it) reading, then the ignition side of your stator is ok. Next, move onto the Ignition coil, etc. etc.

I would agree with Jack. If hitting a tree and it suddenly stopped, its most often a loose wire that came unplugged. Or, a solder joint under the cover of a kill switch that suddent snapped off (due to the jar of a tree). Do use a simple 12V tester to see if current is getting across both sides of the kill switches. Also, do check the ignition key assembly. Sometimes, mud/crud gets in this area and it doesn't get a solid contact.

Hope this helps as well....

Thank you for the help. I will get started today.

Thanks again,
