The first thing I did was try a new plug, no spark.
I tested magneto wires, 330 ohms between black and blue. 2.5 between black and white. This seems to be on par with a good magneto.
I can't find any readings on the CDI between black and blue, nothing readable testing the screw side, numbers jump like trying to read a capacitor.
I read there was supposed to be 75V AC output on magneto black and blue wires. I could only read about 12V rolling the bike forward a couple feet. Not sure if this means It's bad or my digital meter just isn't accurate or if I'm even testing it right because it's just a quick pulse? I did hook some LED lights to the black and white and they did flash when motor turned. Also hooked same LED's to black and blue and LED's flashed very bright.
Is there any test I can do with the CDI? Should I just bite it and order both replacement parts?
