Help. 03 Polaris 700 Sportsman. No Spark
I could really use some help with my "no spark" issue. It is a 03 700 Sportsman. I backed it into the garage, shut it off. Went to fire it a week later and nuttin. No spark. I have unhooked the black wire to eliminate the "kill" circuit at the CDI.
I do notice that the voltage regulator has what I would call a "hot bulge" in it. (Looks like it has melted on the inside) It has always looked like this tho. This quad rolled about 150 feet down a ravine, I bought it from a buddy and rebuilt it. (I think the damage to the regulator was from a short in the headlight system when it rolled.
I found some ohm readings to check the stator and it shows to be good. Battery is brand new and has plenty of juice.
I don't really wanna buy the "update" kit for $430+ the hassle of install, but should I anyways? Anyone have a voltage regulator that they removed for the updated kit?

does it turn over? or all systems dead? there is a red wire off the starter relay on left side outside frame just into rear wheel well that runs power forward to controls from battery cables. I broke this a few times it kills everything, otherwise check all wires at regulator near radiator top . Or maybe that bulge is a tumor!

If doesn't have spark and all connections good, then either the Ducati coil pack or stator has gone out. I WOULD NOT try to find replacement parts as they will go out again! I've been seeing this more and more recently. Just get the kit when you can. OPT P.S. I have a MT6700 Colt H-bar 1 in 9 twist,real tack driver!
