I have seen references on this and other forums about testing the CDI. The service manager at a dealership in North Myrtle Beach tells me they cannot be tested. What's the real scoop here?
I removed your duplicate thread and changed the title on this thread, You posted 3 new threads with the same title. Corrected now. Welcome to the community.
Here is an article that explains it pretty well, they can be tested, but just because the test turns out positive, it doesn't necessarily meant that it is good. It may work fine one minute, and then just fail without notice. That may be why the dealer says they can't be tested, that and he probably wants to sell you one. If the test shows that the CDI is not working, then you definately know it is no good. How To Test a Dirt Bike or Motorcycle CDI on 4Strokes.com
