no spark on my 86 spree

Post by nabes »

I'm working on an 86. No fire at the plug. I'm not getting 12v to the CDI. Where should I check? Thanks,
Gary

Hi Gary,
First thing, is there is no need for +12v power to the CDI. The scooter's magneto generates the voltage inputs to run the CDI. So the scooter is capable of running w/o a battery if kick start is present.

Check the Service Manual section of this site and download the Manual for you scooter. They will outline some electrical tests you can run.
