So far the coil-plug-plugwire seems like the most likely problem. IT FELT MORE LIKE A SHARP JOLT, NOT CONSTANT. Oops sorry caps. The alternator also puts out an AC voltage I think is like 28 volts or so. Also the output from the CDI to the coil can be 130 volts enough to tingle you. So would seem is something from the CDI to the plug. Maybe do a wire trace look for something wearing through at rub points. Pull plugs off & put some dielectric grease in them. Thhis will have to wait on mine until warmer. Heading to the below area & garage is not heated.

 

ya i agree that 12 volts shouldnt be enough to shock you but the coil sure would it was grounding out.

 

I followed as many wires as I could with out tearing the quad apart and I can find no wires rubbing on metal. so I guess I will take it to the dealer.

 

let us know w/ what you find.

 

Hopefully covered by warrenty Vs. dealer labor price SHOCK! - All pun intended!
