Hi all

Newbie here, I have used the search function and done alot of troubleshooting, but still no spark on either plugs.

The workshop manual has been ordered, but not resived it yet. So i appologise if there are some things I have missed here.

Bike turns over fine. All other elctrics are working fine. But no spark. I have not got a tester, Plugs remowed, and are using jumpercables to make sure I have good ground on the plugs.
Im abit paranoid on the harness, as there have been work done on the front harness done earlier ( Ape hangers on the bike at the moment) But as I can not find annything wrong im my messurements, it might have been a good job done earlier.


All troubleshooting done with a maintanance charger on the battery.
12 volt fine on the Red wire on each coil.
12 volt fine on the Brown/White on the Igniter, with key on.
12 volt fine on the Black/Red on the igniter when the start button is pressed.
7 volt fine on the Grey wire on the igniter with key on.

So what I have not been able to troubleshoot is the pickup coil.

Could there be a faulty ignitor?

BTW, im in Norway. So no US bike.

Cheers
Marius
