figured out which one is the cdi then i unhooked the black with white stripe wire and no start i think the coil is burnt up?
so you think its the coil? if so id like to test my stator all i have is a light tester (homemade) and is there any way to test the coil. i was just thinkin that if my stator has power and im not gettin spark so thats coil.
then when i get it runnin again i can deal with the kill switch

i no a few tricks to find out whats wrong here. first of all, this probably wont do much but turn on the light switch and kick it over to see if it lights up to see if you have power from that coil. if that checks out use your light tester and touch the leads to the two wires for the ignition circuit coil. this is the thing behind the flywheel cover. if the light on your tester lights up then that is not your problem. next check your ignition coil. an easy way i found is get a 9v battery and clip an alligator clip onto the frame and the other side to the negative terminal and take the input wire from the coil (the one with the spade connector i believe its black or yellow) and clip an alligator clip on it. take out your spark plug but leave the spark plug wire on it and hold it on the metal of the frame. take the alligator clip thats not already on the battery and tap it on the positive terminal. you will probably need to do it pretty fast to check it. it sould make a small spark accross the plug. if its not sparking just grab the plug and see if you feel a shock (trust me it wont be much of a jolt) if that checks out along with your stator coil the problem is most likely your cdi box. also, if you recently tried to remove your tors make sure that the small yellow wire coming from the cdi is connected to a black grounding wire. unplug any type of kill switches both the key and your toggle and see if you have any luck. make sure you dont have any wires bare and shorting on eachother or the frame too. i hope this helps!!
well i kick it and my lights do glow a lil so i think im getting power from my stator. Its only a homemade light tester. I hooked the tester up to my lights and it light up a bit. I then tested the orange wire from the coil under the seat nothin and i tried numerous times and nuttin. Does the electricity to the coil run the the cdi box? if so maybe the cdi box it burnt up and not allowing power to the coil?? and what does the cdi box even do
me and my dad where checkin everything to figure out that the power wire was and to trace everything around and there was a 3 prong plug in into one of the little boxes under the hood (tors or cdi) and i was kickin it to get it to get power to check the light tester and boom it started up so idk
that would be the tors. stupid pos. leave that 3 prong unplugged, unplug the switch at the throttle and the one out of the big box on the carb and keep riding!
well the wire comin out of the tors box is already cut and for the one on the throttle just cut it right off?
