2strokeshees Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Got the motor and everything back in, wire harness and everything bolted up and connected. NO SPARK! The tors have been removed before I started the build and it ran fine. So the 2 grey plugs that arnt plugged in should be fine, There is one black plug up there by the coil (black solid wire and black with yellow stripe wire) not sure about that one. I tested the 2 stators I have and the ohms are at .019 for both. I read online its supposed to be between .013 and .050. Someone chime in an tell me if whomever was correct. Any leads after this would be great. Thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erickson483 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Did you check your flywheel gap? Should be .018"-.02" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Do you have bare metal on the frame for groung and coil ground? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzrmbsg Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Make sure everything is hooked up correctly, this is the stock wiring schematic. Follow each wire to its proper place, and make sure you have good grounds... If you just powdercoated the frame... I know it sucks, but you may need to take a dremel and grind down to bare metal to make sure you have a solid ground. Sent using Tapatalk!

2strokeshees Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Here is what is unplugged. Thanks for the schematic .. The throttle switch is unplugged, also the plug coming of the front brake master cylinder, the 2 tors plugs, ground for tail light (even tried it grounded) and blue wire for the brake pedal. Im pulling my hair on this thing right now. Ran perfect before the build. I have had the flywheel off and the stator but I tested the stator and seemed ok, my tester was on 2k ohm and it read .018. banghead banghead edit: also stupid question, does motor mount have to be metal to metal (grounded). Flywheel gap is good and spark plug gap is good. Edited May 17, 2012 by 2strokeshees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokeshees Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Grinded all of the ground points hooked everything back up, kicked it over and had spark for 3 kicks and then went away. What in the world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakar Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 did you grind paint off behind the coil itself?check your harness and also the pick up gap...should be spaced the thickness of a matchbook from the flywheel firing points.. keep pluging away goodluck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokeshees Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Yes, grinder everything except motor mounts. Checked harness religiously. Any way to check the flywheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumarat Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I just finished my build, ran good before tear down. No sparky after I finished and ended up being the cdi. See if anyone you know with a banshee will let you test there cdi on your bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmfisher71 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 having the EXACT same problem with mine....... but some one (before me) has cut the key switch out. do the throttle switch and tors plugs need to be tied together.....i also have tors removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokeshees Posted May 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I have an 04 that I think im going to switch the wire harness onto the 96 so it is the same when its all said and done. The only thing I havnt checked is the CDI box. It was working before the build but now nothing. Im confused at how it could go bad but who knows. Does anyone see an objection to switching to the newer wire harness. No dmfisher, those 3 do not have to be plugged in I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkm2006 Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 had the same problem with my bike spark on and off.. took it over to jeff and fast. he chased all the threads cdi and coil, and all that where i had it powercoated good as new!

thomas h. Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 You may have the check the harness for a pitched wire. I would also get a spark plug tester light and a buddy(powered by beer) to kick it over and over while you do the harness wiggle test. Then you may find the issue. If that fails I would strip the harness down remove the extra wires and look for melted spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokeshees Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I swtiched everything over off of my 04. I wanted them to have the same plugs as eachother so in need of any electrical parts I could just swap real quick. She has spark now, Im not sure what the problem was with the other harness but this harness works. The coil I was using had a loose end and wasnt getting a good ground, so I threw the older one on real quick and she runs like a champ. Other then the gas overflowing in the carb and some other minor little tweaks this baby is ready to rip. Thanks all for the information you guys helped out alot!!
