No spark on 1987 moto 4 225

Ok so I tested every wire and everything Was fine. I unplugged some of the wire connectors cleaned them and reconnected. It was spinning over then it just stopped all together. The start button just stopped working. I am not sure if the Cdi or some other electronic unit is bad on it somewhere. I am taking steps back now. Will keep on trying

- Have someone tap the CDI with a screwdriver handle while spinning the engine
- Apply heat on the CDI by using a heat gun or hair dryer ( just warm the CDI up....LOL...don't go crazy with the heat
- If neither of the above work, pull the CDI and put it in the freezer for a few hours, then try it.
None of these are a fix, but simply troubleshooting tools....

I know they do but....they sometimes work. I have known about freezing the CDI's for years, but never thought about the "heat gun" thing till that and the screwdiver thing was pointed out to me here on this forum. The heat gun thing 100% helped me resolve a CDI issue.....but I haven't tried the tapping with a screw driver thing yet...but when all else fails, I will try that as well...
