dt502001 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Ok so any luck sorting out the spark issue yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted April 18, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2014 nah, doing my head in. I'm gonna take the ignitor back to the guy in warrington and see if it still works. If it does, i'll buy new coils and a trigger coil, not a lot else I can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Nope not a lot else to do is there,thats what i hate about used electrical parts ,,you just never know when they will give up and have you chaseing your tail and second guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted April 20, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 20, 2014 good news is the ignitor still works. and I got another set of plugs which look a lot better.... still no spark. next step tomorrow will be to separate the connections and see what transpires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neversaydie Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 yep black - grey, black - orange, should read 108 to 132 ohms infinity to earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Well your narrowing it down ,the chances of both coils being bad are pretty slim so what else could it be.Just got to love unknowen used so much for a good running used motor,just hope thats the only problem with it.

Moderator drewpy Posted April 22, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 22, 2014 Motor ran fine on the test bed, maybe it has been standing the pickup coil was affected Sent from my RM-914_eu_euro1_280 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted April 22, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 22, 2014 Be hilarious if it turns out to be a duff kill sw......... it would affect the separate independent connections I made. All i have left is the pickup coil an even that ohms out correctly black - grey, black - orange, should read 108 to 132 ohms infinity to earth is that from the ignitor or HT coils?

Moderator drewpy Posted April 22, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 22, 2014 from the ignitor (dual pickup type) only single in this one as its the later type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I never trust the pick up coil tests they for some reason never seem to fail the test (only if they completly fail) but fail to work,you have eliminated all the rest so noting else really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 checks done at the plug connector in the loom, 89 models and on, 81 to 121 ohms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted April 23, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2014 checks done at the plug connector in the loom, 89 models and on, 81 to 121 ohms and mine is 95ohms, still its the only thing I have left to replace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 if no spark at plugs red/white wires from ignition coils are fed by 10 amp fuse in fuse box, fuse snugged in? have you got the black/grey/orange connectors at the ignitor on the right terminals? Have you got an electrical schematic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ive just realised, your fitting an xj600 motor into a fz600 loom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
