The ground wire on the CDI is good. I got 12.2v on it when I tested it (the battery was at 12.2v). The starter is turning over fine as well but still no spark. I don't like this voltage on the battery it low . Can you turn on your headlights with the ignition on or turn them off while the scooter is running . If your head lights go on when the ignition is turned to the run position , unplug your head light switch and try to start the scooter . I suspect when your cranking the starter your cdi is voltage starved . 12.2 standing battery voltage , what does it drop to with the key in the run position , then when you hold the brake what is the voltage ? then when your cranking what is the voltage . attach a booster pack to your battery and try to start it up .

check to see if your ignition coil primary coil is shorted to ground . Do a resistance test of the coil .
Just a thought here should the ignition coil be connect to power and ground directly to the cdi ?
One other thought RX , do you know for sure the cdi your using is is in working condition ?

Attach a wire to the negative battery, touch the threads of the spark plug and recheck for spark.

the triger coil is mounted outside the flywheel . I have heard the spacing of the coil to the flywheel can effect the output voltage . If not sounds like the pick up/pulse coil maybe defective . John Pull the cover off and try this!!!!!!!!! John |

If you don't try you will never know . Check the muffler mountings they can vibrate and make interesting sounds .

Yes it makes perfect sense as to what you said but how they wired this doesn't make any sense. LOL I have two scooters with the DC system and just like the AC systems they ground out ony the CDI. I apologize I should have looked at the diagram again and I did and it's simple. We know that the AC system's method of killing the engine is by grounding out the CDI only and they do not ground out the trigger or the coil which from what I see in your diagram is what they have done here? You've got to do a little rewiring but you know that. On the key switch the red and black are a done deal leave them alone. On our new 11 coil AC type CDI system we will NOT ground out the trigger or pulse coil, absolutely not necessary. So after installing the 11 coil stator run a single wire from the trigger or pulse coil to the proper pin on your new AC type CDI. Run a single wire from the AC feed wire (usually red/black) to the proper pin location on the CDI. Wire the 3 yellows to your new R/R Of course hook up the new CDI to a ground wire on the proper pin. Run a single wire from the new CDI from the proper pin to the coil and make sure the coil is grounded, if it is a two wire coil then one wire to the CDI and the other is a ground and also if it has a kill wire from the key switch disconnect it, if you can't use it then just terminate it. Then from the key switch take the b/y wire and use it for the ac type CDI kill wire. Also as we said ealier on the handlebar kill switch ground one terminal and then tie the other wire into the b/y wire that is now the CDI kill wire. Also we now do not need the 12Vdc wire from ther key switch to the CDI because it's now a stator fed AC system, terminate the wire. The scooter will run and before you even start it or for sure put any plastics back on you can use your multimeter to test the kill wire functions by ohming it out. The AC system is simple to kill the engine ground out only the CDI. JR very well stated John |

Leave the trigger wire alone , give it direct connection to the Cdi . Pick up a ground on one side of the kill switch , then send to the Cdi kill port . Wire the ac feed off the stator direct to the Cdi . You can feed power and pulse to the Cdi all the time , if the kill port is grounded it will not run . Be sure to connect on the out side of the kill switch/Cdi side so when the ignition switch is off your sending ground to the Cdi kill port .

Well if you have ground at the kill switch and the the AC CDI has a pin just for a kill circuit . I would just pull a wire from the switch to the cdi . I'm not sure on your scooter are you sure it grounds out the trigger ? Could it be interupting the dcv feed from the ignition switch , so could it be power at the kill switch and not ground ?

the pick up coil from the other stators you have . you can mount them/it to your scooter just the pick up coil . and take a voltage reading . You never know it just might start .

We ordered a clutch from John for a little Avanti 150cc. I am happy to say it got to us in record time, was exactly the part we needed, and we got it for a very good price! I'll be checking back with you for parts in the future!! Thank you for the kind words !!!!! John |

My Harley sat for several months and the crap I found was very bad . Even if I don't ride I try to start the engines every 2 weeks . I run them for a good 15 min and rev them up to get some gas through the main jet . It seems to help .

Have you tried a new spark plug?
