gt500 lowspeed/highspeed coil wiring question

Post by moth_boy »

Well guys,
Looks like the reason my GT 500 has no spark may
be because of the fried green wire on my stator...

But before I plug in my soldering gun and miswire some
expensive looking coils, could someone tell me if I've got
it sorted? I'm assuming that this diagram-

http://smokeriders.com/Technical/wiring ... grams.html

is showing that the Black and red wire is conected to one end of the smaller coil (marked 197111) the black wire is grounded and connected to one end the larger coil (marked 187111) and the green wire runs between the free leads on both coils and then into the cdi?

I'm thinking the green wire was too close to the flywheel and rubbing on it... Have to epoxy it out of the way next time.

Thanks!
JD

I have replaced both coils on my GT500, ignition coil (Dyna S coil for a Harley), and built a new CDI box. Any soldering you do on the coils on the stator, put some epoxy on the joint flowing onto the coils. If you don't, I guarantee the joint WILL vibrate off. This bike DOES get heavier by 10 pounds for ever block you push. Your assumption about the connections is correct, also watch the routing of the wire going to the neutral switch. Good luck.
