Hi, just joined so apologies for jumping straight in.
I'm building a bobber from an 88 GSX base, all good... up to trying to get her running, just trying to get basic noise, select a gear and then I'm happy to strip down and get all shiny....or at least clean.
I've been trying to get my head round the CDI hook up, I can get power to the coils but no spark !! to give you an idea;
4 pin plug is
Orange/white, now this is hooked up to the battery and spliced to CDI/coils.....im still not 100% this is correct but don't now how the CDI is powered if not through this !!!
Black / White to earth
Black /yellow to coil
White to coil
The other plug, 6 pin
Yellow and blue/black to ignite thingy - i cant get any indication of a live through this when power on, does it carry power ??
haven't used the Rev wire
That's all the wires coming out of this thing ...
I prob need a volt meter but for the mo the bulb is on for power to coils as mentioned...
Should be simple I'm sure but has me done, before I spend money on a sparky or new ( ebay) CDI anything I'm doing or not doing right you thinks..?????
Oh, and when I can figure posting a pic ill do, garden/kitchen build don't get more basic...
Thanks
