99 kodiak....please help
so i was winching a log out of the way when the quad starded to slip. as it was in reverse already i gave her a little gas to hold my ground. all of the sudden i'm sitting on a stalled quad that wont start.
many hrs of recovery later, its quite obvious that i burnt up the coil ground wire pretty good. checked other wires...all good. replaces burnt wire....no spark. so i pull the coil, seems to test ok... working on pulling the stator, but i could really use some help wrapping my head around what happened in the first place and why i still have no spark.
best i can figure, when i gassed the quad while winching i must have somehow spiked the charging/ignition system and it overloaded and burnt up.
as best as i can tell the winch was installed properly(just bought the quad a week ago), and though ive never put it under such stress before, it has been used here and there to self recover...
i ran some prelim tests on the stator wires, but without a referance as to what good values are i can only use logic.... i am pretty mechanically inclined and am starting to feel like i'm missing the bigger picture here.......any ideas???
PLEASE HELP!!!

...well i guess its possible, but shouldnt the charging system regulate itself so as to prevent such an overload? (assuming it wasnt damaged already) and furthermore, why am i still getting no spark?
i pulled the stator cover and inspected/tested to the best of my ability and it seems to all be within reasonable limits, but as stated previously, i am going off of general #s for resistance as i am having a hard time finding exact specs for a 99 kodiak.
i just bought this quad (my first) a week ago..... please, any help getting her back on the trail would be awsome...thanks in advance!!!
