Hey all, nice forum you have here, been browsing around and between here and the service manual, I've gotten to the point where I'm close to having a running bike! Did the single carb conversion, had it running, just needed to adjust the carb then take it on a road test, but...
Then the spark flatlined. I replaced the battery since i had an old one i was hoping would make it to the bike running that finally smoked out, bike cranks very good now with new battery. The pickup coils test nice at around 108 ohms each, the primary coils measure nice at 2.7 ohms, i have yet to get any reading out of any of the many coils i have on hand for the secondary coils, not sure if im doing the procedure wrong. Im getting 12 volts to the red/white wire on the ICM connector, the immobilizer that trips at 60 degrees seems to be functional and not cutting it out, i have 3 ICM units, 2 from 1984 bikes, and a newer, presumably ignitech, box but not sure what year. no markings. none work, now. I have swapped my fusebox from the glass fuses to bladed fuses, but im unhappy with the way its structured, i think i accidently got a circuit one and not an independent circuit fusebox, ordered a new one thats on the way.
My question(s) are:
Whats left to check?
How do you check the secondary coil? I dont think im doing it right, since its not giving any reading on any coil i have, on the bike or not.
All the connectors seem like they, well, connect. How would you check for pulses from the pickups to see if the ICM is even getting the command to fire?
Thanks a bunch! I'll keep poking around at the information y'all have around here.
