My sons 2000 yamaha warrior will not start. It will turn over but not fire. There is no spark @ the Spark plug. I can pull it off and it runs great. I tested the stator and the ohms were very low on one of the plugs. should i test anything else?? and if so how??? (i will apoloize in advance...i may not know the proper names of some parts..I have never done anything like this....I'm just a mom trying to fix sons bike...if i can. :frown:

I changed spark plug. Made sure wires going to spark plug had good connection. Tested the ohms from the wires coming from stator. One read 291 and the other much much lower, although i can't remember the exact #. sorry. I should have given you more info. hope this is better and thank you so much.

I don't have a manual for the warrior, but You may want to test the coil, (what the spark plug wire connects to). Even a bad plug boot can cause this.

Blaster/raptor/warrior/banshee- remove the plug boot by unscrewing it- check the resistance of the boot by; putting one end on the screw and the other where it plugs on the sparkplug should be between 4-6K Ω, if that checks ok next- the primary resistance of ignition coil [positive lead (red) to the skinny power wire coming out of coil unplug it to test this-to generator(stator) and negative lead (black) to one of the grounding terminal on either side of the coil] should get- 1.44-1.76Ω Secondary resistance [positive lead (red) to the plug wire and neg (black) to the power wire on coil to generator(stator) again unplugged] 5.28-7.92K Ω.

If any are not in this limit replace it! Hope this makes sense to ya!

ok, stator is good because it runs when pull started.

cdi box is good because it runs fine.

voltage regulator is probably fine too.

coil is good because it runs fine when pull started.

how fast does the motor spin when trying to start with the electric start?

if it isn't fast enough, it won't produce a healthy enough spark .

it could be the battery or the starter, or both.

also, what i would do is strip as much plastic away so you can check all your wiring. there could be a bare wire(s) touching the frame. check everywhere the wiring is tie strapped on and where there are wear/rub marks regardless if it is encased in a protective plastic. peel it away and look and you can always tape it back up. you could also have someone help you to see if there are flashes in a dark garage or outside while cranking it over with the starter motor.

Thanks OB. I did try to jump it off with no luck. I pulled it with the tractor and it did start but I had to pull it pretty fast. I was then able to ride and it sounded great. I replaced the starter about a yr ago. Don't no if that matters or not???

Got it. So, if it runs after being pulled off then the stator is good? Thanks for all your help. I hope to understand this all of this someday. I hope I don't question u to death.

:yes: we are all here to ride and have fun and help each other out, and you're not questioning me to death :no:

i think something is interupting the path of the electric starter, the bike runs fine with it being pull started, so i would have to think there is a wire(s) grounding or a bad starter or battery....

The screws that hold the pick up coil in are really tight and I don't want to stripe them. Any advise. Sorry fpr type

o'S I am using phone with gloves on. Didn't want u to think I was completely stupid. Ha

mine were in tight too, sometimes if you give them just a little tightening, just to move it ever so much, it breaks it free. then you can back them out. you can also try keeping the screwdriver in the slot, and tap it with a hammer...

      1999 Ranger 6x6 no start
      By realpilot
      I am unable to find a wiring diagram for this UTV.  When I turn the switch to on, the contractor does not engage.  The Brake pressure switch and the parking brake switches work correctly. What else should I be looking for?  All of the diagrams I have found are for newer models and the wire color coding is different.
       
      Thanks

      1988 big bear 350 no spark
      By 88bigbear
      Bought a 88 big bear 350 4x4 took it for a run and lost spark, found it was stator so I replaced that then took it for a long run and it sat for 2 days and no spark again, this time stator tests good on ohms and voltage for source and pick up coils so I started replacing things including regulator, ignition, ignition coil and plug cap, spark plug and everything tests great including all safety switches until the orange wire for ignition coil from the cdi it only reads 3 volts so I replaced the cdi and still 3 volts, any ideas??

      Fixing for a friend. Atv was at a different friends house to be fixed and he rebuilt the carb and had it running nice, then it shut off and no more. He replaced the key and the coil.
       
      So he got busy, so I am helping, I checked the wiring from the stator to the cdi, and from the cdi to the coil. All is good. I checked resistance on the pickup coil, good, and on the source coil, open. I buy a new stator (China) and the 4 prong plug only has 3 wires in it while mine has all 4. I checked resistance in the source coil and it's in the 300's. I pulled one of the old pickup wires out of the old stator and wire it in the new one. Still no spark.
       
      Why do the wires differ, I checked the VIN again and it's "J" for the year and I got a 1988 stator. Please help!

      2006 Polaris Sawtooth No Spark
      By LashinWheeler
      Hello all, I have a 2006 Polaris Sawtooth with no spark. It has a dead battery but with a jump pack on it, it will still not Spark. Plug is good, Throttle ETC is not closed, Stator pick up coil seems to Ohm out in the correct range, Unsure how to properly check the CDI. And when ignition is on the Neutral and reverse light come on but after cranking just the neutral stays on. 
       
      Any help would be great,
       
      Thanks!

      99 Bear tracker no neutral or reverse light or start button
      By OldATVowner
      Just getting into this issue really. Been replacing solenoids but now I'd like to track down the problem. This time I'm not getting neutral/reverse lights or start button. Was on a creek ride when it started doing this recently. It cranks by arcing the solenoid and gives me no light or start button but if I crank with the pull cord....the neutral light and the button work. Turn it off and try to crank with the key and nothing. I'm looking into the safety switch issue tomorrow and re charging the battery. Just figured this was odd enough of a problem that you guys might be familiar. Thanks
