Burns363R Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 I got a 2000 banshee that has no spark. I found the key switch was broken when i tried to turn it on. So i bypassed it temporarly. I tied the red and brown wires together and the two black wires. Still no spark. I ohm checked the stator and it checks out good per my manual. Is there any other common things to check on these? Im not sure how to check the coil on this, the book i have doesnt describe what to check on it very well. The bike appears to be 100% stock, no pipes, still has twin carbs. I did pull them and clean them. Havent installed them yet. The WOT sensors are still plugged in. And yes the thumb switch is on. Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m new to banshees but diagnostics is a general thing when it comes to motors which I work around. If you’ve bypassed the key switch and removed the tors to check then try checking to see if you have signal coming into the ignition coil for spark. Start there to see if maybe it’s a bad coil. If that checks out fine you have bad coil. If you don’t have signal at the wire well then I’d have to look at the wiring diagram for a banshee to tel you where to look next but I believe it would be the cdi box. Wiring diagram will be your best friend in this situation if you know how to read one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns363R Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 I need to know how to bypass the key. I have two different people telling me two different things. Can any one definitively tell me how to bypass the key switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoppedupandcutdown Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 I mis-spoke, Black to Red/black, should be the 2 heavier gauge wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
375hp banshees Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 ^ youre basically grounding the r/b wire on the cdi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns363R Posted February 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 black and red/black are the lighter gauge wires. The solid red and brown are the heavier gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
