Do You Have a Spare Ignition Module for RSV?

[LilBeaver]

Howdy folks. I am in the process of trying to identify an intermittent problem with my bike. unfortunately I think this may end up including needing to replace the ignition module. I have found some form Pinwall (and another member has offered me one that he purchased used) and I am aware of the Dyna 3000 as a replacement. I don't really have any interest in doing the Dyna replacement and my preference would be for a unit that has a reasonably well known history (ie out of someone's bike that got upgraded to a Dyna unit or something like that).

 

So my question is does anyone have a spare module out of their RSV that they took out for the purpose of replacing the current one with a dyna or whatever? If so, would you be willing to part with it, for how much, etc etc.

 

Thanks a lot!

As a back up, I have one also from my 02 RSMV. Hasn't been used in nine years and you are welcome to it.

Something else to keep in mind...

 

I had intermitent bike no run problem a few years back, caused by riding in heavy rain. I traced it down in the driveway with a garden hose to the area of all the connectors under the battery.

 

I had the module out and cleaned all the various connectors under there, reassembled all connectors with dielectric grease, and sealed all connectors with spray on ignition sealer.

 

Also, the potting material on the back of the module left a lot of solder connections exposed, so I added an additional layer of silicone from a tube to seal all that up.

 

Haven't had any problems for years now, even in the downpours just west of DFW the other day.

 

Just a thought, Scooter Bob

I have noticed a correlation to very humid conditions (it hardly EVER rains here) and this so I will definitely keep this in mind (inspect/address accordingly). Thanks Bob!

Howdy:

 

Well, I hooked up the new module and it started right up but have not gotten it out for a test ride yet. Various parts are strewn over my garage at the moment and that ugly 'w' word seems to be taking up most of my time

 

I will definitely keep you updated though! While I hope for tonight, realistically it probably won't be until tomorrow or Saturday when I can spend a solid chunk of time getting this sucker back together and/or figured out. BUT, none the less, I am looking forward to it.

 

Thanks again!
